- Personal development: Work in a small team that gives you the opportunity to contribute your individual strengths and ideas and actively shape the future of Helpling.
- Multicultural team: 120 employees from 27 nations in Berlin that promote different perspectives, professional exchange as well as tolerance for each other and mutual ideas.
- Mobile-work policy: That gives you the freedom to work regularly from home and at times even from other European countries.
- Employee discount for Helpling.de, attractive salary, company pension scheme incl. employer contribution, 5 paid child-sick-days, central location in the heart of Berlin (Friedrichstraße), and much more
