Intro

Hamburg Hybrid (50/50) | 44.000 – 53.000€ p.a. | Full-time (40 hrs/week) | German & English (fluent)

Are you excited about owning the next chapter of suena's events? This year we left the small startup booths behind for good - our own stand, our own concept, real presence at Germany's biggest trade fairs. Join suena as our first dedicated Event Manager (f/m/x) and take full ownership of how suena shows up at every fair, conference, and stage - from concept to execution.

suena energy is a green tech startup specializing in algorithmic energy trading for energy storage systems and renewables.
Our vision: a world where clean energy is used reliably, economically, and intelligently - and where we actively accelerate the energy transition by enabling batteries and renewables to power our grids. With our AI-based optimization and trading software, we maximize the value and market participation of large-scale energy storage and renewable assets in short-term electricity and balancing markets - while minimizing risk for operators.

We're a 50+ person team that's fast-paced by nature, but the kind of place where people actually look out for each other. Following our successful Series A, we're investing in expanding our team - and as we show up bigger at events both in Germany and abroad, we're excited to bring someone on board who'll own that next chapter with us.

Your mission

• Own event concept and execution – trade fairs, conferences, speaker slots, webinars: take what's already working, sharpen it, and build what's still missing.
• Coordinate everything that runs in parallel – booth planning, event bookings, internal stakeholders from Sales and Marketing to C-Level – you keep the full picture together.
• Lead our three flagship fairs (E-World, smart-e, WindEnergy) on the ground – running the show, no task too small – and grow into owning our new international events in Poland & Spain.
• Keep the overview across 20+ events a year, moderate our webinar series (aiming for a steady 6/year), and own budget decisions independently.
• Your track: independent trade fair execution by month 6, full ownership (incl. our internal event format) by month 12.

Your profile

• Hands-on event experience, and you love the hustle that comes with it – trade fairs, conferences, webinars, you know what it takes to pull it off.
• Strong project management – you plan far enough ahead that deadlines never turn into last-minute scrambles.
• Fully present when it counts – moderating, working the booth, fixing the coffee machine when it dies. Whatever the moment needs.
• You take ownership and make things better – you can run an existing concept well, but you never stop at "good enough" and bring your own ideas where it counts.
• Strong communicator, in German and English – you talk to anyone: vendors, partners, whoever just walked up to your booth.
• Packing a bag doesn't faze you – some travel for our flagship fairs comes with the territory.
• No energy market know-how needed yet – but genuine excitement for the industry is exactly the energy we want at every booth, stage, and webinar.

Why us?

• People at the Core: Clear structures, democratic decisions, and a feedback culture where your voice counts.
• Shape the Future: Contribute to the energy transition by working on sustainable energy solutions in a growing market environment.
• Connecting & Co-Creating: Strategy off-sites and onsite weeks for real collaboration and shared ideas.
• Work Your Way: Home office and flexible hours – you know what works best for you and your team.
• Good Vibes: Yoga, shared lunches, after-work fun – we keep the energy up, even when it's busy.
• Body & Mind: Urban Sports Club membership, wellbeing check-ins, and mental health support – your energy matters.
• New Office: 10th-floor office with rooftop terrace, canteen, great views, ergonomic desks, hardware of your choice, and a pet-friendly environment.
• Sustainable Extras: Deutschlandticket, FutureBens, and more – supporting your mobility and future.
