Role Overview

The Working Student supports the GTM Strategy & Transformation function, working directly with the Senior Director on high-impact strategic and operational priorities. The role contributes to market research, competitive analysis, process improvement, and growth initiatives that directly support the revenue organisation's go-to-market execution. This is a hands-on, project-based role suited to a student with strong analytical foundations, an interest in commercial strategy, and the initiative to take ownership of outcomes rather than just tasks.

Main Responsibilities

• Support the end-to-end delivery of high-priority GTM initiatives: tracking milestones, managing stakeholder inputs, and ensuring projects deliver measurable outcomes.
• Identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies in go-to-market processes, proposing and helping implement frameworks that improve scalability across the organisation.
• Translate data and analysis into structured, concise storylines and presentations for senior stakeholders.
• Conduct market research and competitive benchmarking, synthesising findings into clear briefings and recommendations that support executive-level decision-making.
• Work closely with the Senior Director, GTM Strategy & Transformation and cross-functional teams to support evolving strategic priorities as they arise.

Job Requirements

Required Experience

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Business, Engineering, Marketing, or a related field.
• Previous experience in a fast-paced environment, such as a startup, venture-backed company, or management consultancy, is a strong advantage.

Required Skills

• Analytical and structured: goes beyond surface-level data, questions assumptions, and draws independent, well-reasoned conclusions.
• Takes initiative and ownership: identifies problems, proposes solutions, and follows through to implementation without waiting to be directed.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguous environments where projects don't have an established playbook.
• Able to structure complex ideas in writing and produce concise, high-quality output for senior audiences.
• Collaborative and adaptable: works effectively across functions and adjusts quickly to shifting priorities.
• Fluent in English.

Please note: This is a working student position, limited to a maximum of 20 hours per week during the semester. Applicants must be currently enrolled at a university and provide valid proof of enrollment (“Immatrikulationsbescheinigung” in Germany). Compensation is hourly €18.
