<Funzy> Funzy is a German D2C brand that designs, produces and sells modular children's play furniture and accessories — most notably the Funzy Spielsofa. The company offers stylish, durable, washable, and safety-tested products (play sofas, poufs, seat sacks, climbing arches, play mats, cushions) aimed at home use and institutional settings (Kitas, schools), sold primarily through an eCommerce Shopify store across Europe. Funzy emphasizes modularity, flexible play use, certified quality, and sustainability with regional production and charitable partnerships.

📋 Description

• You will bring Funzy into the major metropolitan areas of the DACH region and take full operational and strategic responsibility for our monthly pop-up stores from A to Z — including location scouting, logistics, team management, live sales and post-event analysis. • You will be responsible for a seven-figure revenue channel with clear targets, managing budgets and KPIs while keeping both growth and profitability in mind. • You ensure that every sales space reflects the Funzy brand optimally — creative, high-quality and absolutely "Insta-ready." • You establish long-term partnerships and place Funzy where families go: from family cafés and family hotels to concept stores and experiential venues. • You develop creative activations, events and promotions that generate attention, bring people together and drive sales. • You work closely with our marketing team and intelligently extend offline experiences into the digital world. • You recruit, train and motivate local promoters and event teams and ensure that every activation is a success. • You are hands-on and act as the driving force on site behind our pop-ups and activations.

🎯 Requirements

• You have prior experience in areas such as Retail Expansion, Store Management, Field Sales, Trade Marketing or Business Development, ideally in a dynamic start-up, DTC or consumer environment. • You are an excellent organizer, work in a solution-focused way and keep oversight even when many things are happening at once. • You are a doer and enjoy getting stuck in yourself — from negotiation meetings to building a pop-up store. • You proactively approach people, build relationships and enjoy negotiating strong partnerships and attractive deals. • You love achieving goals, making successes visible and get energized when an idea ultimately turns into revenue. • You have a good sense for families, parents and children and understand what motivates our target group. • You enjoy variety and are happy to travel. You will spend approximately 40–50% of your working time travelling within the DACH region. • You speak fluent German and very good English.

🏖️ Benefits
