Ihr Profil

You are a Master student or recent Master graduate (e.g. Business, Engineering, Energy, Law, Communications or related field)

First experience in at least one relevant area: consulting, startups, VC, project development, business development, marketing or HR

Strong analytical & conceptual skills – Slides/PowerPoint and Excel/Sheets feel natural to you

You enjoy thinking and doing: structuring problems and then executing the solution yourself

High intrinsic motivation for renewable energy, climate impact and agriculture/energy topics

Very good communication skills, comfortable in meetings with external stakeholders

You work reliably and independently, can prioritise and keep several tasks organised at once

German is your mother tongue (or native-level, C2-equivalent); English skills are a plus

Warum wir?

  1. Timing: You’ll be one of the very first team members at an early-stage startup with bold ambitions, bootstrapped to profitable seven digits in revenue and 5x growth YoY.
  2. Learning curve: You’ll take on real ownership and benefit from weekly feedback sessions with one of our founders. We know some of our team members may start their own company one day and want you to be prepared.
  3. Impact: Without a global shift to renewable energy, climate change cannot be solved. With our projects, we aim to enable sustainable energy generation and ensure that by 2035, 100% of electricity in Germany comes from renewables.
  4. Team: An ambitious & experienced yet close-knit team based in the heart of Munich.
  5. Track Record: In a very short time, we’ve positioned ourselves as one of the leading players in Agri-PV in Germany.

Working student essentials

What this Operations internship in Munich means for you: the pay rules, the social contributions, and what international students should check before applying.

Weekly hours

Internships have no 20-hour cap, but a voluntary internship longer than three months generally has to pay at least the German minimum wage. Mandatory internships in your study programme are exempt.

Working student rules

Social contributions

Mandatory internships are largely exempt from social contributions. Voluntary internships are treated like regular employment once they run long enough, so contributions usually apply.

Check your insurance

International students

Non-EU students can work 140 full or 280 half days per year (raised from 120/240 in March 2024). A working student contract usually fits within this — confirm the exact limits printed on your residence permit.
