Why Fixico
Fixico is at an exciting stage of its growth.
We have built a proven technology platform, a large European repair network and relationships with leading automotive and mobility organisations. With Fixico One, we are expanding our platform across the wider repair and maintenance landscape, creating significant opportunities with both new and existing customers.
Germany is an important part of that ambition.
This is not about entering a new market from scratch. There is an established business, customer base, network and team to build from. The opportunity is to take that foundation and scale it further.
As Head of Germany, you will have the opportunity to lead one of Fixico’s most important European markets and play a central role in its next phase of growth. You will have meaningful ownership, direct access to Fixico’s founders and senior leadership, and the ability to influence how we develop our commercial organisation, platform and market approach.
It is a role for someone who wants to build: a market position, a team, strategic customer relationships and partnerships that can develop over many years.
We offer a competitive compensation package, including an attractive performance-based bonus, and the opportunity to be part of a highly talented and international team.
While the role is based in Germany, we believe strongly in spending time together. You will regularly work alongside the wider team at our Amsterdam headquarters to collaborate, align on strategy and stay closely connected to the business.
For any questions about the role or application process, feel free to contact our Executive & Leadership Talent Partner a.i., Valerie Ducobu, at [email protected].
