Jr. HR & Finance Specialist

Studyportals is the biggest educational search platform globally - and we are looking to expand our young team in Bucharest! Our challenge is to build, adapt, and create the biggest education search platform, bringing absolute transparency and reliability to international higher education. By understanding the student journey in and out, we’re building a platform that is valuable to students and responsive to the demands of international education.

Think about what Google does as an online search engine. Think about what BestJobs does for online job searching. Studyportals is also a search engine, but for higher education degrees. So, if you want to find your dream study, this is where it happens; and your job is all about making sure students looking for a university education can get all the information they need about worldwide university programs.

We are scaling up very fast; we have added about 90 new employees to our team in the past year, and now we need many more in our Romanian office. Our Content Management Center, based in Bucharest, is currently looking for an HR and Finance Specialist.
