About the Position

Join our team in Munich as a (Senior) Project Manager for Promotion & Staffing, managing end-to-end projects and ensuring brand message delivery.

Responsibilities

• Comprehensive End-to-End Ownership: From the initial customer inquiry through proposal preparation, cost estimation, budgeting, and scheduling to operational implementation, final reporting, and final billing, you will manage your projects comprehensively and independently.
• Integrated Project & Promoter Management: For you, the operational management of promoters isn’t a side issue-it’s at the heart of your project management. You not only plan campaigns strategically but are also directly responsible for the associated staffing, briefings, and on-site quality assurance.
• Pool Development, Management, & Performance: You not only manage existing contacts but also actively build and expand our pool of promoters and hostesses, as well as our network of external service providers and freelancers; you further develop these resources and use KPIs to ensure the teams’ performance and service quality.
• Interface Skills & Operational Management: You serve as the central hub of the project and coordinate close, direct collaboration with our internal and external operational partners-such as logistics, service centers, and other service providers-to ensure smooth implementation at the POS.
• Focus on POS Activation & Field Marketing: You manage complex promotional campaigns-often lasting several days or spanning multiple locations-as well as field marketing initiatives and POS activations, ensuring that the brand message is conveyed perfectly.
• Agile Crisis & Incident Management: During dynamic live phases, you respond flexibly to last-minute changes and logistical challenges on-site and find pragmatic, solution-oriented approaches.

Requirements

• Focus on Professional Experience: You have several years of solid experience in project management-with a clear and demonstrable focus on promotions, field marketing, or POS activation, ideally on the agency or service provider side.
• Expertise in Promoter Management: You have proven experience in actively building, leading, and improving the quality of promoter and hostess pools. You know how to motivate and brief teams and ensure their sustained performance.
• Hands-on Mindset & Cross-Functional Expertise: You have strong organizational skills, think operationally, and have ideally already worked closely with logistics and service units. You don’t wait for instructions but proactively tackle problems.
• Customer Focus & Growth Mindset: You enjoy direct customer contact, build trusting relationships on an equal footing, and ideally have experience in customer development or the organic growth of accounts.
• Proficiency with Tools & Numbers: You’re comfortable using standard MS Office tools (especially Excel for calculations and budget planning) and project management tools-they’re part of your daily toolkit.
• Language Skills: Business-level proficiency in German and good written and spoken English.

We Offer

• Flexible Work Models: We offer flexible models such as home office options, individual hourly arrangements, and job rotation.
• Global Opportunities: With us, you have the opportunity to work remotely worldwide for up to three weeks per year.
• Wellness Benefits: A company bike, discounted Body & Soul membership, and numerous discount promotions make it possible to stay active and enjoy leisure.
