  • HQ Ops: take what you learned in the field and turn it into process, tooling, and fixes at headquarters.

  • M&A: support sourcing, screening, and deal work as we keep growing through acquisitions.
  • Revenue Management: learn how we price and optimize performance across our portfolio.
  • Finance: get exposure to the numbers behind the business: budgeting, reporting, and the levers that actually move margin.
  • People: get a seat in hiring and team-building, from sourcing to onboarding the next great Arbio A* hire.

By the end of the program, you'll have an end-to-end view of how Arbio runs, from the field to the boardroom, which of these becomes your main focus is something we figure out together, based on the business's needs and what you're excited about.

Important: You own problems, not tickets. High-agency and high-ownership is the mentality we're looking for.

  • Real drive and high ownership, you finish what you start, without being chased.
  • You learn fast.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, you'd rather build the solution than wait for someone to hand you one.
  • Comfortable switching between big-picture strategy and detailed, hands-on execution.
  • Gained first work experience in an environment with high integrity, strong work ethic, and high speed.
  • You know how to communicate (fluent English required, German a plus).
