“Nature does it – we advance it” We are the Planeteers, a climate-tech startup from Hamburg. We capture CO2 in water and unleash the potential of the oceans as the largest carbon sink on our planet. Accelerated Weathering of Limestone (AWL) is a reaction in which CO2 is „neutralized“ using limestone. This reaction occurs in nature all the time, everywhere and on a large scale. Time scales of natural limestone weathering are thousands of years. With our technology, the process can be extremely accelerated, so that large amounts of CO2 can be rendered „harmless“ within minutes.
We are currently looking for an Operations & Office Coordinator – or in other words “the heart & soul of our office” to join our growing team in Hamburg.
The Role
As a young startup we grew significantly during the last 12 months – from 8 to over 25 employees. Hence, more and more organizational, administrative and structural tasks need to be tackled.

Owning our day-to-day accounting processes (invoices, payments, etc.)

Keeping track of invoices and cost documentation
Helping out with assistant-level tasks for the founders & team (calendar, meetings, etc.)
Generally being the person everyone turns to when they need something to just get done
We are looking for someone who…
has a solid grasp of basic accounting / procurement / admin tasks
has practical experience as office manager, assistant or procurement manager
loves organizing, structuring and improving internal processes
knows their way around tools like Excel, Power Point, Word, and maybe even accounting tools (e.g. Datev)
