Working Student People & Culture (f/m/d)

Introduction

About You

At Earlybird, we back exceptional European founders from Day 1.

Behind every great company is a strong team. As our Working Student People & Culture, you’ll work directly with the People team across the full employee lifecycle, with a strong focus on recruiting. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys ownership, thrives in fast-paced environments, and wants to learn what modern People work looks like inside a high-performance VC environment.

About Earlybird

Through two separate strategies, Earlybird focuses on tech-enabled businesses in fintech/ insurtech, enterprise software, and deep tech (energy, food, and space) while Earlybird Health focuses on improving patient outcomes. Earlybird additionally has a Growth Opportunity Fund for follow-on investments, and a pro-bono impact initiative, Vision Lab. With EUR 2.5 billion under management across fund streams and a history of 9 IPOs and 35 trade sales, Earlybird is among Europe’s most established and active venture capital firms.
