Head of Outreach & Partnerships (m/w/d)

We are looking for an experienced developer who builds tools that bring people together and fulfill their cultural and self-actualizing needs. It's about networking, matching, self-determination, and the activation of shaping will: people find each other through their interests and dreams, set joint projects in motion, and are actively accompanied by AI. We want to connect and empower – so that people can realize what they really want.

Our core product is the dreammachine platform – a collaborative network for a Maker community, where synergy arises from connection and cooperation, and the whole becomes more than the sum of its parts. Besides, we operate KulturRadar, a KI culture assistant that recommends events in your city and leads you to culture and community. Both products pay off on the same idea: people activate, network, and self-determinedly get involved.

We are a young, innovative, and consciously flexible startup. We work completely remotely and meet up occasionally – we don't have a fixed office. Our culture is open, appreciative, and plural, our working style agile: build, test, rebuild, retest. The team consists of three founders from the fields of Games, Code, Visual Effects, and Science, supplemented by a Full-Stack Developer and an intern from application development – as well as a Silicon Valley veteran as Advisor.

What we're looking for

Our product is standing, and it's moving forward. Now we want to amplify this impulse and strengthen it. We are looking for someone who builds partnerships with event organizers and aggregators: actors who already have large, culture-interested target groups. The idea is simple – we provide them with our strong product and unlock their existing user base together, instead of building it up laboriously one by one. You go actively to these partners and build relationships, so that we can focus on product and operations.

You work closely with the founders and bring new energy and genuine connections outside.

Tasks

• Partner acquisition: actively approach event organizers, event series, promoters, and aggregators with a large reach, build relationships, negotiate cooperation („What can we offer?“)
• Product as an offer: position our tool so that partners want to use it themselves – and we reach their target group through them
• Strategic partnerships: win reach-based cooperations and pilot partners – also regionally – and steer the cooperation long-term
• Partner research & pipeline: identify relevant actors, prioritize, and build a sustainable outreach pipeline
• Tell our story in the first contact: tell our offer so that partners want to stick with it – honestly and tailored to the partner
• Documented & repeatable: document outreach activities, evaluate, and make them systemically scalable

Qualification

• Experience in Outreach, Partnerships, Sales, Business Development, or cooperation building – ideally in the Tech-, Startup- or Culture sector
• Genuine contact pleasure, fun at networking, confident appearance, and convincing communication
• Eigeninitiative and perseverance: you go to people and stay with it
• Sense for relationships, negotiation, and what partners value
• Strong personality, high degree of self-determination, no fear of the new
• Very good German and English skills in writing and speaking

Existing contacts in the event-, organizer- or media landscape are explicitly welcome.

Benefits

What awaits you

We are a young company that works completely remotely and meets up occasionally. We're looking forward to someone who accompanies our vision, co-founds an open, appreciative, and flexible work culture with us, and drives the team content-wise and personally.

As young founders, it was our goal to set up our company in such a way that we would want to work there ourselves. Our culture is therefore open, our working style agile – you work where and how it suits you best.

Remuneration

We remunerate this position in virtual business shares until the seed financing stage. You don't join as a classic employee, but profit directly from the success of the company like we do: as the value grows that we build together, your share grows with it. Scope and vesting are transparent and individually discussed – fitting to role, engagement, and time of entry. A later addition of a salary component with progressing financing is explicitly planned.

By the way: We're also looking for someone in Marketing

This position is deliberately tailored to Outreach & Partnerships – parallel we are also looking for someone as Head of Marketing & Growth. Both roles work hand in hand. If you feel at home in both worlds, we would be particularly happy about an application that combines both – then we'll talk about a corresponding broader role. Just write us what your heart beats for.
