Internship in Venture Development

Internship Venture Development (m/f/d) | Berlin | Start: 01.12.26

At metrify, Germany's leading independent smart meter operator, we're looking for an Intern to join our Venture Development team in Berlin.

Smart meters are the digital backbone of the energy transition: they create transparency, make the grid more efficient and unlock new energy applications at scale. Germany's rollout is one of the country's biggest infrastructure projects, and it's only just getting started. Around 50 million meters are set to go digital, only about 6% have switched so far, and the government is targeting more than 90% of relevant metering points by 2030. This creates a unique opportunity to be part of a hyper-growth market at an early stage.

metrify is setting the pace with 100,000+ customers, nationwide installation capacity and our own tech platform, which automates the entire metering process from installation to clearing.

The role

This role is placed within our Venture Development unit focused on special projects across the company. You’ll work with teams across the organization on strategic pushes, new business ideas and long-term initiatives that shape metrify’s next stage of growth. From day one, you’ll take ownership of your own projects and work closely with a great team of colleagues and our MDs.

What you'll work on

• Cross-functional pushes that bring teams together and drive topics to implementation
• Special projects and long-term initiatives across the entire value chain, from first analysis and business case to pilot and rollout
• Business cases and market analyses wherever the next opportunity lies, B2B and B2C
• New partner and customer acquisition channels

What you bring

• A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree (ongoing or completed) in business, economics, engineering, data science or a related field, plus first experience in a high-growth environment
• Non-traditional paths are just as welcome: we care about what you can do, not just where you studied
• Strong analytical skills and understanding of business models
• Confidence with Excel and slides, and a tech-enabled way of working with AI, low-code tools and automations
• Ownership, reliability and genuine interest in energy
• Fluent English (German is a plus) and availability full-time on-site in Berlin for 3-6 months

What we offer

• The chance to actively shape the energy transition in one of Germany's most dynamic energy markets
• Responsibility from day one and a steep learning curve alongside our MDs (ex-McKinsey, KIT & ex-Aurelius, Bucerius)
• A team of highly skilled, top-profile colleagues across all functions
• A fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment where your work has visible impact and room to grow with the company
• Backing from our parent company and its investors TPG Rise Climate, SoftBank, HV Capital, Activate Capital and The Westly Group
