  • A digital mindset with curiosity for innovation, tech-driven creativity, and emerging trends.
  • Confidence in using AI as a creative tool to amplify concepts, accelerate exploration, and invent new methods—not as a shortcut.
  • Understanding of marketing technologies (MarTech),their creative potential, and their practical boundaries.
  • A collaborative spirit—your best ideas emerge from working closely with strategy, tech, copy, and UX.
  • Ability to think in prototypes, not just slides—you bring ideas to life visually, narratively, and tangibly.
  • Strategic and brand-oriented thinking paired with strong communication skills.
  • First experience in professional leadership is a plus.
  • Fluent German is required; very good English is an advantage.
  • Flexibility to travel when needed.
