Join Voyfai, a fast-growing Series A startup shaping the future of logistics and technology across Europe.

Headquartered in Berlin, we operate at the centre of a broader group of companies active across several European markets.

This is a unique opportunity to work directly with our Co-Founders from day one, drive meaningful impact and grow within a

dynamic, fast-paced environment. Whether you're shaping how we run the company, leading strategic initiatives or building new

organisational rhythms from scratch, your contributions will directly influence the success of Voyfai and the companies we

support. If you're passionate about building from scratch and excited to be part of a company on the rise, we'd love to hear from

you.

YOUR ROLE

As Trade Manager - Ocean Freight Europe (m/f/d), you will own the Asia–Mediterranean trade lane from the European side — managing

member relationships, steering volume, driving allocation performance, and building Voyfai's commercial presence in the Med

corridor. You will work closely with the Director of Trades and Partnerships and our Hong Kong-based team to keep origin and

destination aligned across the Far East to Europe corridor. In your first six months, success means members trust you as their

go-to trade contact on the Med lane, you own key carrier relationships, and you have a clear view of volume targets and allocation

performance across your book.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Own the Asia–Mediterranean (Far East–Med) trade lane from the European side — managing FCL/LCL allocation performance, volume

targets, and member delivery against trade commitments

Serve as the primary commercial contact for Voyfai members and group companies on the Med corridor — understanding their

business, managing rate requests, and influencing volume behaviour

Lead pricing execution — balancing short-term market opportunities with long-term carrier credibility, and flagging performance

gaps with corrective actions

Manage carrier relationships within your scope — supporting contract and COA negotiations, tracking allocation performance, and

owning escalations where needed

Work closely with the HK-based Trade Manager and Director to keep pricing, allocations, and operational execution aligned

across the corridor

Support new member onboarding and contribute to business development conversations — helping members win larger end customers

through Voyfai's carrier portfolio, pricing capability, and tech platform

Contribute to building the trade management function itself — processes, reporting routines, and operating standards — in a

lean, fast-moving environment

WHAT YOU BRING

Solid experience in ocean freight trade management, freight buying, or procurement — hands-on with FCL/LCL, container shipping,

and Asia–Europe or Far East–Med lanes specifically

Strong commercial orientation with the ability to manage and deepen member or customer relationships — a farmer mentality, not

purely a hunter

Hands-on experience with carrier contracts, COA/allocation management, pricing structures, and weekly lane performance tracking

Able to set volume targets, analyse performance, and take corrective action independently — without waiting to be directed

Comfortable working across geographies and time zones with Asia-based counterparts

Based in Hamburg or the wider northern Germany area — Berlin HQ is an easy train ride away and you'd be expected to come in

occasionally

Self-directed and able to operate in a lean environment where processes are still being built

Strong English, both written and verbal

BONUS IF YOU HAVE

Existing relationships with major ocean carriers

Experience building a trade lane or commercial function from scratch

WHAT WE OFFER

Competitive salary and equity options

A dynamic, fast-paced work environment with a mission-driven team

Flexible working arrangements

30 days of PTO

Regular team events and offsites

Monthly mobility budget via Navit

Product Manager (f/m/d)

OH-SO•Hamburg

WHAT TO EXPECT We're looking for product managers who own the outcome, not just the output - people who can hold the user problem, the business goal, and the client relationship in one hand while keeping delivery on track with the other. This is a delivery-led product role: you'll shape what gets built and why, then make sure it ships. Whether you're building your craft or already setting the standard, we want to hear from you. YOUR COMPETENCIES We hire across levels. Here’s what each looks like at OH-SO: Junior Product Manager You're building your product craft with close support. You gather requirements, document decisions, and translate stakeholder input into clear specs - and you're learning to connect each of those back to the user problem and business goal behind them. You support scope, budget, and delivery tracking on a single project, and you're starting to see how product decisions ripple into commercials, delivery, and client outcomes. You use AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity) to draft requirements, synthesise research, and prepare first-pass reporting - with everything reviewed and refined before it goes further. Intermediate Product Manager (typically 2–3+ years) You own a product or workstream end-to-end, independently and with light oversight. You own the case for what gets built and why - prioritising against user value and business goals, not just shipping to spec - and you own scope, budget, and delivery against contract, handling change and scope deviations properly and keeping the commercial and delivery sides aligned. You're confident in front of clients and teams, spot risks early, and act before projects drift off course. You use AI autonomously for reporting, requirement synthesis, and scenario planning, and exercise your own judgement on quality before anything ships. Senior Product Manager (typically 5+ years) You lead product ownership across complex, multi-workstream projects. You're accountable for the product outcome - the decisions that keep what's built connected to real user needs and business reality, not only delivery against contract — while steering scope, budget, and stakeholder alignment end-to-end. You're skilled at navigating change, commercially sharp, and ready to grow beyond a single project: helping build and evolve OH-SO's product and delivery capability, and establishing the standards and ways of working the rest of the team calibrates against. You use AI to define new ways of working across product and delivery, not just execute established ones. What you bring to the table, at any level: * A proven track record in digital product work — at an agency, consultancy, or in-house team - shipping digital products, not only running projects * Experience working inside cross-functional teams alongside design and engineering, ideally in agile setups, and comfort being the voice of the user and the business in the room * The ability to turn user needs, data, and stakeholder input into clear product decisions, priorities, and trade-offs * Growing ownership of scope, budgets, and delivery, with the commercial judgement to keep them aligned (scales with level) * Confidence in front of clients and teams, and skill at navigating change and driving decisions * The ability to take complex, ambiguous information and structure it into clear plans, risks, and recommendations * A genuine interest in how AI is changing product and delivery work — and the judgement to apply it well, not just talk about it * Readiness to grow beyond a single project and help shape standards across OH-SO (grows with level) * Fluent German (C1+) and English, written and verbal
