Strategic Projects Associate (m/w/d)
Role Overview
Reporting directly to the CEO, you'll work across strategy, finance, commercial, and operations — not as an observer, but as a driver. From board-level reporting and financial analysis to hands-on commercial projects and process improvements, you'll gain the kind of cross-functional exposure that typically takes years to accumulate.
But this role goes further: you'll be at the forefront of pioneering how AI technologies create real business value. Whether it's identifying where intelligent automation can transform workflows, leveraging data-driven insights to sharpen our go-to-market strategy, or bringing emerging AI capabilities into day-to-day decision-making — you won't just learn about innovation, you'll be expected to deliver it.
If you're a sharp analytical thinker who wants to understand how an entire company operates, push the boundaries of what AI can do in a real business context, and build the foundation for a leadership career in tech, finance, or operations — this is your launchpad.
