Job Description

Hey!

We are vly – an innovative food tech startup from Berlin that is revolutionizing the food industry. Our goal: healthy, plant-based milk alternatives that are not only good for you but also for our planet. After years of research, we have developed products that contain significantly less sugar and more protein, have won awards, and are available throughout Germany – such as our pea protein milk alternatives and the very first fava bean protein yogurt. But this is just the beginning! In addition to constantly improving our products, visibility and actual tasting are of course other important drivers for the future of vly. This is where your next step at vly begins...

Your mission as a (Junior) Brand Activation & Event Manager will be to convince as many people as possible of vly as a healthy & sustainable brand by making the brand and products tangible for our target audience.

• Event Organization: Independent organization, planning, and execution of trade fairs, tastings, pop-ups, brand events, event sponsorships, internal events, as well as active on-site support.
• Project and Time Management: Creation and monitoring of schedules, checklists, and timelines for the smooth execution of all events.
• Partner & Service Provider Management: Clear communication and reliable coordination with external partners, locations, suppliers, and agencies.
• Logistics & Warehousing: Independent management of event logistics – from material ordering and warehouse organization to transportation.
• On-site Team Leadership: Briefing, coordination, and supervision of promoters and event helpers during their assignments.
• Concept and Innovation: Active contribution to new event formats through research, idea generation, presentations, and input in internal meetings.
• Follow-up & Reporting: Documentation and evaluation of events (e.g., feedback analysis, photo selection, creation of reports) for continuous optimization.
• Event Administration: Allocation and maintenance of budgets, invoice filing, management of attendee lists, and maintenance of the event database and material overview.

Your Benefits:

• Purpose: It is absolutely essential that the food system changes for the better. Your role directly contributes to making it healthier and more sustainable.
• Real Team Spirit: A creative and motivated team that sticks together – including regular vly Day events, shared team lunches, and offsite events.
• Personal Growth and Experience: Insight into the event & brand activation of one of Europe's most exciting food startups. Versatile tasks, defined responsibilities, and genuine trust. Travel, working in different locations.
• Mobility: Subsidy for BVG / Deutschland-Ticket.

Job Requirements

Your Profile:

• Work Experience: You have 2+ years of professional experience in event management or trade fair organization (e.g., from corporate event departments or event agencies). As a junior, you have at least intern experience, part-time jobs, or significant private projects).
• Education: You have successfully completed a commercial apprenticeship (e.g., Event Manager, Marketing Communications Manager) or a relevant degree.
• Hands-on Mentality & Stress Resistance: You remain calm even in dynamic phases, think solution-oriented, and take initiative operationally and administratively on your own responsibility. Multitasking and flexible working hours (including weekend assignments for events) do not bother you.
• Work Style: A structured, independent way of working characterizes you just as much as clear communication and enjoyment of teamwork. You are in the office weekly, therefore residing in Berlin is a requirement.
• Language Skills: You communicate fluently in German and have very good English skills.
• Tools: Proficiency in MS Office or Google Workspace (especially Excel/Sheets and PowerPoint/Slides) is part of your toolkit.
