What awaits you
Agvolution is growing – and with us grows the need for someone who holds everything together behind the scenes. Over the coming months we are expanding our team significantly. That is exactly where you come in: you are the commercial and organisational backbone of our company – from HR and recruiting through preparatory accounting to processes that still hold when we are twice our size.
This is not a pure administrative role. You shape things instead of merely managing them – with a direct line to the management team and plenty of freedom to build your own topics.
Your responsibilities
HR administration & people operations
- You are the first point of contact for our team in all personnel matters
- You are responsible for personnel files, contracts, certificates as well as holiday and absence management
- You handle preparatory payroll accounting in close coordination with our tax office
- You create and publish our job postings and support the outreach to suitable candidates
- You manage applicant tracking and coordinate interviews between candidates, the team and management
- You accompany new colleagues from signing the contract to their first week at work – and make sure they feel welcome from day one
Commercial back office & preparatory accounting
- You support us with preparatory accounting and prepare the handover to our tax office
- You are responsible for incoming invoices and document management: capturing, digitising, filing in a structured way and cleanly transferring into the accounts
- You keep an eye on open items, deadlines and records
Processes, systems & corporate matters
- You introduce an HR tool (e.g. Personio) and run it on your own responsibility
- You further develop our office workflows and document structures and create repeatable processes instead of one-off solutions
- You support shareholder matters (e.g. shareholder resolutions, notary appointments) and the associated documentation
Office, team & events
- You are our central point of contact to the outside world: you look after the phone and e-mail hub, take enquiries and forward them internally – recurring enquiries you answer yourself over time
- You organise our team weeklies (hybrid) and on-site team events
- You support, when needed, the preparation of trade fairs, roadshows and customer events (travel planning, logistics, materials)
- You welcome guests and are the good spirit of the office
What you bring
- A completed commercial apprenticeship (e.g. office management clerk, industrial clerk) or a degree in business administration, HR management or a comparable field
- 2–5 years of experience in office management, commercial back office or HR – ideally in a start-up or SME where you built up or helped shape processes yourself
- Familiarity with commercial workflows: document handling, preparatory accounting and cooperation with a tax office are nothing new to you
- You are eager and motivated to build things from scratch rather than administer existing structures
- A structured, careful and self-reliant way of working – dependable and with an eye for detail
- Strong communication, assertiveness and a professional yet warm demeanour
- Experience with HR software (e.g. Personio) as well as HR further training (e.g. certified HR specialist) are a plus
- Fluent German and English, spoken and written (part of our team works in English)
- Confident use of MS Office and digital tools plus a feel for modern office organisation with which you inspire the team to adopt new processes
What we offer
- An annual salary between €44,000 and €48,000, depending on your experience and qualifications
- The chance to build the commercial and organisational foundation of a growing deep-tech company from the ground up – with a direct line to management
- Regular sparring with our managing directors – we share our knowledge, give honest feedback and develop you in a targeted way
- A real perspective: you carry the commercial backbone until our finance team grows – and can then develop further, for example towards People & Culture
- Feedback cycles, onboarding processes and personnel development are only just being built – you actively shape them rather than finding them ready-made
- 30 days of holiday plus a company subsidy for a Wellpass membership
- Modern hardware – Windows or macOS, you decide
- A centrally located office in Hamburg as your fixed place of work – with the flexibility to work individual days from home
- A dynamic team of experts in which team spirit and mutual support are an essential part of our culture
About us
Agvolution develops technology for the agriculture of tomorrow. With agmeo, our farm-management and geo-AI platform, we make soil and climate data usable for commercial and institutional customers – from seed and fertiliser manufacturers through farms and agricultural insurers to food producers. With climavi we supply the matching sensor technology that gathers data directly from the field. This is how we combine hardware and software into a basis for decisions that did not exist in this form before.
We are a team that connects deep tech with real-world application: engineers, developers and agricultural experts working together towards data-driven and more sustainable agriculture. From Hamburg.
For better readability we use the masculine form in this job description – it goes without saying that we mean all people, regardless of gender or gender identity.
