Vacature: Country Manager Germany and Austria

At Super Chill Foundation, we believe that mental resilience is the
cornerstone of a resilient life. That’s why we are fully committed to strengthening this resilience in elementary school children from the age of 6. In April 2024, we have launched a complete rebranding and repositioning of Super Chill, resulting in new exercises, a new website, and an interactive app. With already 10,000 downloads, we are well on our way, but our ambition is grand; we aim to help 10 million children in Europe develop a healthy and positive mindset. As the Country Manager for Germany and Austria, you play an indispensable role in realizing this mission.

In your role at the Super Chill Foundation, you will be responsible for developing, implementing, and evaluating the market entry strategy in Germany and Austria. You know the countries, the media landscape, and how to establish the right partnerships to gain traction quickly. You are responsible for the successful introduction, measured by reach and the number of app downloads. You are the link between what is conceived and executed in the Netherlands and what is suitable for the local markets in Germany and Austria. Together, we are building a mentally resilient generation throughout Europe. You will work preferably from Germany, where you have your powerful network. Obviously you will be in close contact with the Amsterdam based team that is part of the NOA Collective, experts in growing impactful brands!

We are not a standard foundation. With us, everything revolves around creativity, an entrepreneurial energy, and making a large-scale impact. We are growing rapidly and quickly adapt to achieve our goals. A hands-on approach is crucial. At Super Chill, you have the space to develop innovative ideas and put them directly into practice.
