Design & Growth Associate
Berlin | Full-time | f/m/d
🌵 We are Plantclub
Bringing plants into your workspace should be easy - that’s where Plantclub comes in. We offer flexible plant rentals across Germany and Vienna, handling everything from design to care, so your team can simply enjoy the benefits.
We’re more than a service. Plantclub is a growing community of design-led companies shaping healthier, more beautiful workplaces. Our memberships adapt as teams grow, offering workshops, perks, and expert support along the way.
Our plants thrive in a living cycle - over 85% are refreshed, repurposed, or rehomed because a healthier workspace should care for the planet too.
💚 About the Role
This is an 80% Design / 20% Growth hybrid role — ideal for someone creative, structured, and commercially aware.
You’ll primarily support and deliver high-quality plant concepts for forward-thinking employers, while also contributing to growth initiatives that expand our reach and partnerships.
You’ll typically manage 5–8 active projects in different pipeline stages, balancing design quality with speed, ownership, and follow-through.
🌿 80% Design & Project Ownership
You will:
Design and deliver tailored plant concepts — from intro call and site visit to proposal and contract close
Conduct site visits and client consultations in Berlin
Manage execution end-to-end: procurement, suppliers, timelines, installation coordination
Own smaller projects independently and support larger ones alongside the Senior Designers
Maintain structured weekly pipeline reporting and documentation
Improve workflows across Design, Procurement, and Operations
Ensure smooth handovers to Operations after contract close
Support installation days (including physical plant handling of 25kg and ladder work)
Build and maintain relationships with architecture and design partners
Success in this role means delivering concepts on time, maintaining clear communication, and ensuring seamless handovers to Operations.
You can expect regular on-site consultations and installation days in Berlin, with occasional travel within Germany.
🚀 20% Growth & Market Expansion
You’ll also support our Growth team by:
Researching and identifying design-led companies, platforms, and communities aligned with our B2B audience
Supporting partnership outreach (research, tailored messaging, tracking responses)
Assisting with partner campaigns and design collaborations
Contributing to LinkedIn content (project highlights, partner features, behind-the-scenes installs)
Helping gather member stories and turning them into structured case studies
Supporting market expansion research for new cities (competitor mapping, pricing insights, positioning analysis)
Coordinating smaller seasonal or experimental growth initiatives
This part of the role is hands-on and practical — focused on execution, not just ideas.
