Working Student/Part-time: Business Development Associate (w/m/d)

Company Description

Aspire Digital Design Agency is a Berlin-based digital agency helping small and medium-sized service businesses across the DACH region grow online. We build conversion-focused websites, implement local SEO, reputation management and deploy CRM and automation solutions - so business owners can focus on their customers while we handle the tech.

Role Description

We're looking for a working student or part-time Business Development Associate to join us on the ground in Berlin. You'll work directly alongside the agency founder - meeting local businesses, presenting our services, and helping turn conversations into lasting client relationships. This is a hands-on, people-first role for someone who wants real business experience. You will help to amplify Aspire Digital’s reach and support small businesses in achieving their digital transformation goals.

Responsibilities:

• Join the agency founder in conversations with local businesses - understanding what they need and showing how we can help.
• Present proposals to clients, handle their questions, and see every interaction through to a clear next step.
• Be the person clients reach first - confident enough to answer, smart enough to know when to escalate.
• Collaborate on content and growth strategy - finding new ways to put Aspire in front of the right people.
• Bring your own observations and ideas - if you spot an opportunity or a better way to approach something, we want to hear it.

Qualifications

• Strong communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills, fluent in German and English (German fluency is required).
• You strike up conversations effortlessly with people you've never met, in rooms you've never been in.
• Curious about how digital tools, marketing, and small businesses actually work.
• You don't wait to be told what to do next - you take ownership and follow through.
• Comfortable working independently and representing the agency in face-to-face settings.
• Currently enrolled in or recently completed a degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or a related field.
• Availability to work on-site in Berlin

We strongly encourage you to apply even if you don't meet all the qualifications listed above.

What's In It For You:

• Earn over €25 per hour on a flexible 16-hour weekly commitment. And while your peers are studying business, you'll be doing it. Learn from real conversations with real decision-makers from day one.
