The Opportunity

We’re looking for a sports-enthusiast, bilingual (German/English) marketer who can craft compelling sales decks, drive high-quality marketing collaborations and produce crisp copy that elevates our brand and fills the pipeline. You’ll blend strategy with hands-on execution - balancing outreach, development of collaborations, content creation and presentation design.

We have an office-first culture and are looking for someone who joins us in our office in the heart of Berlin.

Tasks

Sales Enablement

• Create high-impact, design-forward sales decks for client presentations (case studies, proposals, media kits) in close collaboration with Sales Managers to align on goals, objections and proof points

• Apply strong visual sensibility to layout, typography and asset selection

Brand Partnerships

Requirements

• 2–4 years of experience in marketing, collaborations/business development, sales enablement, or related roles (agency or brand-side); B2B experience is a strong plus
