Workplace & Culture Intern

Job description

Join Choco, where we build and own solutions that reshape a broken food system. The global food supply chain is inefficient by design. Waste is high, margins are thin, and most distributor order processes are done over the phone, tracked across broad spreadsheets, and based on intuition rather than strong data. At Choco, we’re changing that. We build software used daily by food distributors and their customers to run their business. It automates orders, reduces errors, and helps operations run faster and more reliably. Because it’s embedded in daily operations, our SaaS platform has immediate, real-world impact, on efficiency, margins, and how businesses run day to day. But great software alone isn't enough. People need an environment where they can do their best work. As our Workplace & Culture Intern, you'll own the day-to-day operations of our Berlin office. You'll make sure around 80–90 colleagues can focus on solving hard problems instead of worrying about broken meeting rooms, missing equipment, onboarding logistics, or operational distractions. This isn't an internship where you'll spend your time observing. You'll become the go-to person for keeping our office running, making practical decisions every day, and taking ownership of problems until they're solved. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own the day-to-day operations of our Berlin office, ensuring it stays organized, functional, and welcoming. - Coordinate vendors, deliveries, office supplies, maintenance, and workplace requests from start to finish. - Prepare onboarding logistics so every new joiner has everything they need before day one. - Plan and execute office events and employee activities within agreed budgets and objectives. - Prioritize competing requests, solve unexpected operational issues, and know when to escalate. - Maintain clear documentation so workplace processes remain reliable and easy to hand over. - Identify practical improvements that make the office work better for everyone. WHAT YOU BRING - You're currently studying and available for a full-time internship of at least five months (ideally six). - You've taken ownership in fast-paced, service-oriented environments such as hospitality, retail, events, customer service, office support, or similar roles. - You stay organized when priorities change, enjoy solving practical problems, and don't wait to be told every next step. - You communicate confidently with colleagues, vendors, and external partners. - You're fluent in both German and English. WHAT YOU GET - Work on digitalizing core operating systems for food distributors, automating orders, sales and payments in a system that still largely runs on calls and spreadsheets. - Work with an AI product with proven product–market fit, already embedded in distributor workflows and directly affecting order accuracy, speed, and margins. - Join a global team across 6 countries and 40+ nationalities, building a company that has raised $300M+ and reached unicorn status (~$1.2B valuation) with the ambition to define this category end-to-end. - In return, you get real ownership, equity, and the support to do your best work, including competitive compensation, health and wellbeing support, and long-term benefits like a sabbatical (all localized by office). - Collaborate with people who want to own outcomes in a messy, real-world system and make it work at scale. If you want to work on real problems, take ownership, and raise the bar, we should talk. Choco is an equal opportunity employer. We encourage people from all backgrounds to apply. We are committed to ensuring that our technology is available and accessible to everyone.
