Your Profile

• You bring 2–4 years of experience in a fast-paced startup or scale-up environment, consulting, investment banking, or VC – for example as a Strategy Consultant, Management Consultant, Investment Banking Analyst/Associate, VC Analyst/Associate, Founder's Associate, Business Analyst, Business Operations Manager, or Project Manager

• Alternatively, you bring at least 2 years of experience as a Founder, Co-Founder, or Managing Director of your own company – whether it scaled, exited, or taught you hard lessons

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills paired with a proactive, hands-on mindset

• You communicate fluently in both English and German, written and verbal, and can convey complex ideas concisely to different audiences

• You thrive in a dynamic, rapidly changing environment and are a self-starter with a high sense of ownership and the ability to work independently

• Genuine interest in contributing to our goal of energy-efficient buildings and a sustainable future

This role is ideal for you if...

• you enjoy pulling the strings behind the scenes and care more about outcomes than the spotlight

• you want to bring structure to chaos without becoming rigid yourself

• you're looking for a close, eye-level working relationship with a founder/CEO

• you're coming from a role as Founder's Associate, Executive Assistant to the CEO (strategic), Business Operations Manager, or Junior Chief of Staff – and this is your next step

About us

Why Now?
Buildings are the largest energy consumers in Europe, making them CO₂ monsters. They account for 40% of our energy usage, causing 36% of all EU CO₂ emissions. That's why the decarbonization of buildings is essential for a sustainable future.

Why Us?
At VARM, we are pushing insulation forward. We help our customers save up to 50% on their heating costs and decrease their CO₂ emissions. To scale insulation, we just closed a strong Seed Round with top-tier investors. Join our mission now to change an entire industry for good.

Our Goal?
Becoming Europe’s insulation champion and insulate 1 million houses over the next 10 years! Now is your chance to be part of our vision. Join us in building a market-leading company in the climate sector. Unf*ck the planet with us and actively contribute to slashing CO₂ emissions from buildings.
