Job Details

Amplify impact at a high level of Zalando! In this role you'll work directly with one of Zalando's Digital Experience VPs to ensure that all administrative and organizational tasks run smoothly.
WHERE YOUR EXPERTISE IS NEEDED
  • Understand the goals, needs and priorities of the VP - who is responsible for developing significant parts of our onsite Web and App customer experiences.
  • Manage the schedule of the VP according to the aligned priorities. Make sure that meetings are prepared and keep an eye on the agenda and contacts. Additionally, also manage the VP's external engagements.
  • Help draft internal communication (e.g. newsletters, All Hands, emails and one-pagers) with strategic direction from the VP.
  • Help push forward various projects (e.g. cross functional SteerCos, information cascades, inputs and outputs of meetings, coordinating office space), by bringing the right people together and gently but powerfully reminding them what the VP needs to succeed.
  • Proactively set administrative processes in motion and execute them effectively in a fast-paced business. Serve as a central point of contact for (potentially new) administrative processes that affect multiple teams.
  • Manage travel (i.e. hotel, flight, train, rental car) and process travel (and other) expenses for reimbursement.
  • Play an active role in building a community by organizing team events and supporting the organisation of offsites and workshops.
  • Support other leaders in the VP's organisation with selected administrative and organizational tasks.
  • Support in the onboarding of new team members
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
  • Excellent administrative and organizational skills
  • Ability to maintain a realistic balance among multiple priorities within a fast-paced and changing environment with several senior stakeholders - while understanding all the different interests, positions, and priorities.
  • Excellent communication and negotiation skills in English, as well as confidence to communicate with and convince multiple stakeholders and senior management.
  • Expertise in Google Apps for Business (Sheets, Docs, Slides, Forms, Calendar, etc.) and the knowledge of how to leverage these tools for effective collaborative work.
  • A working knowledge of German is preferred (but not essential)
PERKS AT WORK
  • A workplace run on trust, empowerment and feedback; positive, inspiring working atmosphere
  • Competitive salary, employee share shop, 40% Zalando shopping discount, discounts from external partners, centrally located offices, public transport discounts, municipality services, great IT equipment, flexible working times, additional holidays and volunteering time off, free beverages and fruits, diverse sports and health offerings
  • Mentoring and personal development opportunities and an international team of experts
  • Relocation assistance for internationals, PME family service and parent & child rooms
