People Ops Manager (Part-Time)

What’s the Opportunity?

We are looking for a part-time People Operations Manager to join our People team, responsible for the full employee lifecycle from onboarding onwards in multiple locations. This is a great opportunity to take ownership of a critical part of the business in setting up our Cargonauts for success. Day to day you can choose to work either from our Berlin office or from home; however, there may be times where you are required to be in the office – i.e., to manage employment-related paperwork, so you should be within easy commuting distance.

This is a unique, entrepreneurial opportunity to be driving the digitalization of air freight and logistics in a fast-growing Series B company backed by leading Venture Capital firms.

Note : This position is part-time , remote , and you have to be based in Berlin . We are a remote company, but regularly meet in person, too.

At cargo.one , we foster a positive, diverse, hard-working, and feedback-heavy culture, with a strong dose of playfulness. Join us now and transform the way airlines sell cargo!
