- A 30-minute video call with Anni (Director People & Culture) to discuss the position, your expectations and questions.
- A 60-minute video call with André (Director of Operations) to do a deep dive including a live case and to talk in detail about the position and the interfaces.
- A final on-site meeting with the Supply Chain team at our Berlin office. At the same time, we'll conduct a brief written reference check with your consent.
Important: We are committed to equal opportunities and welcome everyone. If you need any adjustments to the application process, please let us know at any time.
While individuals from traditionally marginalized groups tend to only apply if they meet all the criteria, studies show that men are more likely to apply for a position if they meet at least 60% of the required criteria. Therefore, if you believe you have the necessary qualifications and skills but don't meet every single one of the above requirements, we encourage you to contact us anyway. We would be happy to have a conversation with you and explore your potential to fill the role.
SOUNDS GOOD? Then send us your application. We look forward to hearing from you!
