Description

You'll work directly with our Head of People as the second person in a small, high-trust People & Talent function in our T-1 VC backed Mobility Start-up. Currently 75+ people across 3 sites and 12+ stores, hiring toward ~95 by year-end and heading into our next stage. This is a build role, not a maintenance one: You'll own projects end-to-end, work with real data, and operate at the intersection of operations, strategy and execution. Tasks Kill manual work. Find the processes that shouldn't exist and remove them — Notion hygiene, HRIS setup, workflow automation. You treat "we've always done it manually" as a bug. Recruiting, with full ownership of your own roles. A reliable bridge between candidates and hiring managers. You run a defined set of positions yourself; the senior and hardest-to-fill searches stay with the Head of People, so you're set up to win, not to drown. Onboarding & offboarding, end to end. From signed contract to a productive first week, and to clean, correct exits. Built to scale, not just to work once. Compliance and operations, airtight. Employment contracts, certificates, references, compliance documentation across all sites — accurate and on time, every time. Employee benefits, evidence-based. Research, benchmark, and implement benefits from data, not gut feel. Employer brand & job-ad content. Help craft how our roles and culture show up to candidates — sharp job ads, careers content, a hiring experience people talk about. (If you also bring paid-channel skills, great, but it's not what this role is judged on.) Your own judgment. If you spot something missing or broken, you say so — and then you fix it. Requirements Some experience in start-up ecosystem and/or people systems is a definitive plus. Internships count. Structured and precise: nothing falls through the cracks, nothing gets left half-finished Fluent German (C2) is a hard requirement. Professional-level English You think in systems: if you do something twice, by the third time you're already building the process Works independently and closes the loop without being chased Discreet – you'll handle sensitive information and take that seriously Comfortable with ambiguity and able to prioritise when everything feels urgent Benefits Our Offer: Small HQ team, high intensity, and big outcomes. You’ll move fast and work directly with leadership who trust you to deliver. Huge End-to-End Ownership: Make a real impact from day one across functions. Shape a fast-scaling platform at its inception. Accelerated Career Growth: Gain first‑hand exposure in a scaling a high-growth, ops-heavy start-up - a solid launchpad for future leadership or founding roles. Experience a small core team with flat hierarchies and direct decision paths. Prime Location: Work from our central Berlin Mitte office (Rosenthaler Platz). Top‑Notch Product: Our product delivers - with NPS scores >90 (B2B and B2C) and Google ratings consistently between 4.8 and 5.0 stars. Wellpass, Laptop, VSOP: Gym Membership, work laptop and possible VSOP package. Mentorship from experienced scale-up professionals: Work directly and get mentorship from an experienced Entreprenur in Residence who acted as right hand to Founders in multiple early stages and scale-ups including Getir.
