Jobbeschreibung

GTM Assistant: Working Student in the Marketing Department

About 8returns

At 8returns, we’re building the infrastructure for intelligent returns: turning a cost center into a profit and retention channel. Our B2B SaaS platform helps modern e-commerce brands make returns smarter, more sustainable, and more customer-friendly.

We’re based in Berlin, growing fast, and backed by experienced industry investors. Now, we’re building our marketing engine from the ground up - and we’re looking for a bold, creative working student to help us make it happen.

The role

This isn’t a role where you watch from the sidelines. As our GTM Assistant, you’ll work directly with our Marketing Lead, the first marketing hire at 8returns, and get hands‑on experience across the entire go‑to‑market (GTM) journey. You’ll learn by doing, own real projects, and help us shape our brand from day one.

What you'll be working on

Content & Communication

• Write and publish sharp, engaging content in German and English across all our marketing channels

• Translate and adapt customer stories and case studies

• Collaborate with freelance designers to generate evergreen and seasonal marketing assets

• Assist in drafting messaging for campaigns, sales decks, event promos, and internal comms

• Help keep our content calendar up‑to‑date and spot new opportunities based on trends

• Conduct light research to support content planning: from competitor analysis to topic ideation

Digital Execution

• CRO: Optimize web pages for conversion, build workflows, and implement technical SEO fixes with support from our team

• Create and test email automations for marketing and sales: from research, writing copy, personalization to setting up flows and reporting

• Assist in managing and updating website content (e.g., blog uploads, image swaps, copy tweaks)

• Monitor basic website and campaign performance in tools like HubSpot and Google Analytics

• Help troubleshoot small bugs, broken links, or formatting issues that impact the digital experience

• Support the setup of dark landing pages for paid and emails to improve engagement and conversion

Operational Enablement

• Finalize swag, manage vendor communication, logistics & activations for our biggest events

• Pull data from our CRM and help us make sense of it for use in budgeting, forecasting, customer and sales enablement

• Spot issues, solve problems, and suggest improvements to our marketing and sales ops setup - we love proactive thinkers

• Support internal reporting by helping track GTM KPIs, building slides for team meetings, or updating dashboards

• Help onboard freelancers by coordinating access, templates, and documentation

What We're Looking For

We care more about attitude and ambition than a stacked resume. You’ll thrive here if you:

• Are a native German speaker and fluent in English

• Are currently enrolled in a university in Germany and available at least ~20h/week

• Love to learn, experiment, and figure things out

• Have a knack for trying out and making a modern tech stack work

• Have strong attention to detail, a feel for design and an understanding of numbers

• Are happy to come to our Berlin office 1–2 days/week when needed

Bonus points if you’ve played with content, web tools, email platforms, or design - even just for fun.

What You'll Get

• Real responsibility and ownership

• Close mentorship from an experienced marketing leader

• Exposure to content, brand, ops, and growth - the full GTM toolbox

• A front‑row seat in a fast‑growing SaaS startup

• Flexibility, autonomy, and a culture that rewards bold ideas

• Truly bring your real self to work

We’re not looking for someone who … wants to learn it all . If that’s you, hit apply and let’s build something amazing together.
