Chief of Staff (on-site)

About the role

Cloover is expanding across Europe and looking for a Chief of Staff to sit at the centre of that expansion: building strategic partnerships with manufacturers, software companies, and industry players, developing joint go-to-market strategies, and leading the cross-functional projects that make internal operations scale. You'll report to the Head of Business Development and work at the centre of the leadership team from day one.

What you'll do

• Build and develop strategic partnerships with manufacturers, software companies, and industry players — with the explicit goal of bringing new installers onto the Cloover platform and unlocking their networks for our financing and software solutions.
• Develop joint go-to-market initiatives with partners that create measurable pipeline — not just relationship management, but commercial outcomes.
• Lead cross-functional projects independently, improving workflows and interfaces across Sales, Tech, Operations, and the trades without needing a brief to get started.
• Analyse existing processes, identify bottlenecks, and develop pragmatic solutions that scale.
• Translate business requirements into practical solutions across teams, bridging the gap between what the business needs and what gets built or deployed.
• Communicate across all levels with clarity and precision — from installers on the ground to senior leadership.

What you'll need

• 2+ years of experience in venture development, consulting, or investment banking — ideally in a fast-growing tech or scale-up environment.
• A track record of driving complex, cross-functional projects to measurable business outcomes — not just managing them to completion.
• Moves from a problem to a structured solution without waiting for a full brief.
• Bridges business and tech teams effectively — can operate in both worlds without losing precision in either.
• Communicates complex topics clearly across audiences: partner negotiations, internal process docs, and leadership updates.
• Fluent in German and English — both required.
• Based in Berlin; office-first environment.

Nice to have

• Experience in energy, climate tech, or proptech.
• Existing network within the installer or renewable energy industry.

What they offer

• Strong base, performance bonus, and meaningful equity.
• Unlimited enterprise-grade AI tools across every role and team.
• Prenzlauer Berg office with latest Apple hardware.
• Free breakfast and dinner, stocked kitchen.
• 25 days vacation and Urban Sports Club (M).
