What are the responsibilities and job description for the Country Manager Germany (Cologne) position at The Offix?
At The Offix, we're a group of passionate people who enjoy experimenting with new technology. We believe businesses deserve better software - software that’s ready to go, easy to setup and use, and everything we do is based on that core principle.
We're no rocket-ship. You won't find any unicorn glitter or exponential curves around here, just a real company with a sustainable business which has been profitable from year 1 and has been growing healthily ever since.
Our headquarters is in Belgium (Antwerp), but we're a fully remote team. We use great tools like Slack, Trello and Github to collaborate efficiently, harnessing the formidable power-of-the-internet™ to get things done.
We are opening up an office in Cologne, Germany and looking for a Country Manager for Lobbipad.
Responsibilities
We are looking for a self-starter, a team player, someone who can get things done. He or she will be responsible for building and growing Lobbipad's office in Germany.

What it's like to work at The Offix
The biggest perk of working at The Offix is that we have a small, talented team with a very large audience. This means you have the ability to have a huge impact on the product and the company, whilst also having really interesting and challenging problems to work on. We believe deeply in what we do, and we're all in this to build something lasting, sustainable and positive.
On top of all that, we try to treat people pretty well. All roles at The Offix come with:
- Competitive salary
We pay very well at market rates reflecting both location and experience. - All the tech you need
We'll pay for whatever hardware and software you need to work and make sure you're regularly upgraded to the latest versions. - Office costs covered
Whether you prefer a home office or a co-working space, we'll help pay for it. - Dog friendly office
Just kidding we literally don't have an office - but apparently tech companies think is an important detail to put on job descriptions and we didn't want to feel left out. So, um. Feel free to work with your dog.
How to apply
We don't hire people often, and positions rarely open up. So when we do add a member to the team, we're pretty diligent about it. This is a very different attitude to most companies.
We’re profitable, we have unlimited runway, and extremely healthy revenue growth. There is no investor pressure or time limit or need to hire as many people as fast as possible to fill a fancy office. We want to keep the team as small as we can, automate as much as possible with robots, build great software, and enjoy our work as much as possible. Those are the things we optimise for. If that sounds like a good fit for you, then we’d encourage you to get in touch.
All jobs at The Offix start with an application form, progressing to 1-2 short phone interviews, and finally a paid trial project. Rather than trying to guess if we'll work well together based on lengthy arbitrary interview questions - instead we invite promising candidates to work on a real life trial project with us and pay them for their time. Trial projects are typically 1-2 weeks of work, and give us an opportunity to get to know each other prior to pursuing a full time offer. It’s also a chance for candidates to get to know the Offix team and make sure that it’s a good fit for them.
