Founder's Associate working on internal projects and strategy at VT Netzwelt, a digital tech agency. Collaborating with CEO and teams to optimize processes and implement innovations.
Responsibilities
Implement internal projects: You support internal strategic initiatives from the initial idea through to implementation.
Own sub-projects end-to-end: You independently take responsibility for smaller (sub-)projects — for example to optimize processes, implement automations, or improve internal reporting.
AI-supported process optimization: A key focus is using artificial intelligence purposefully to make internal workflows and processes more efficient.
Proactive improvements & AI/tool scouting: You contribute to ideation, identify optimization opportunities, and proactively bring forward proposals.
Rapid prototyping & R&D: Together we develop internal prototypes, evaluate tools and concepts, and validate new ideas.
Requirements
Currently enrolled in a degree program in Business Informatics, Economics, or a comparable field — you have a growth mindset and bring an entrepreneurial spirit.
Strong problem-solving skills: You are a troubleshooter, think analytically, and find pragmatic solutions even in complex situations.
Appetite for new things & creativity: You enjoy developing original ideas and taking ownership to turn them into concrete results.
Technical interest and basic skills (e.g., coding) are a plus but not required — more important are willingness to learn and a fundamental understanding of digital tools and processes.
Excellent German and English skills — you communicate confidently in both languages.
Initiative & sense of responsibility: You handle uncertainty confidently and keep your projects independently on track.
Forward-thinking: You question processes, actively look for improvement opportunities, and bring new ideas to the team.
Benefits
Insight into internal strategy & organizational development: You work directly with the CEO and gain access to topics that are often handled behind closed doors.
Own projects with real responsibility: You can take on genuine responsibility and visibly drive internal initiatives.
Active support & steep learning curve: Mentoring, honest feedback, and personal development are an integral part of our company culture.
Flat hierarchies & trust: We embrace autonomy — with open, peer-level communication and a team that shares a passion for quality.
Flexible setup: Hybrid work, flexible hours, and a modern workplace in Berlin support a healthy work–life balance.
Attractive compensation: We offer above-average pay for strong performance.
