Venture Development Manager - Fluent German & English (m/f/d)

Introduction

At Gauder, we rethink home improvement.

Magnets, adhesives, insect protection – sounds basic? We get it. But the truth is: many DIY products on the market are overpriced, poorly made, or just not built to last. That’s what we’re here to change. At Gauder, we develop home improvement solutions that are reliable, user-friendly, and designed with purpose.

Since 2017, more than 2 million customers across Europe and the US have trusted our products – from DIY enthusiasts to professionals. With 70,000+ monthly orders, we’ve grown into one of the leading e-commerce brands in our category. And we’re just getting started.

Backed by experience from Rocket Internet, WHU, WU Vienna, and several international startups, our team combines operational excellence with big-picture thinking. Our vision: expand into new product categories, build scalable infrastructure, and become a household name in home improvement.

At Gauder, we value initiative, accountability, and collaboration. We believe in learning fast, building together, and enjoying the ride. This is your chance to shape the future of a fast-growing consumer brand
