Summary and responsibilities

Role overview

Summary

This Mid-Level role at Picnic involves leading high-impact logistics and analytics projects to redefine the grocery shopping experience and optimize operations across Germany and beyond. You will apply analytical thinking, strategic insight, and a builder mindset to solve complex business challenges, working at the intersection of data, strategy, tech, and sustainability.

In a nutshell
At Picnic, we don’t advise from the sidelines! We roll up our sleeves and build. Whether it’s rethinking how customers interact with their app or optimizing electric vehicle routes, we turn ideas into tangible solutions through a unique mix of analytical thinking, smart technology, and close collaboration across teams.

Important: This is not a one-time vacancy. We are continuously looking for smart, enthusiastic and entrepreneurial talents given the scale up phase we're currently in! In the recruitment process we will understand on both sides which topics, scope and complexity suits you best in order to set you up for success from the very start. In the first years the projects will not rotate across domains, but will rather focus on leading high impact value within one business area.

Tricks of the trade

  • Lead with ambition: You’ll take the driver's seat and rethink the grocery shopping experience for tens of thousands of customers across Germany and beyond. Your unstoppable ambition and analytical foresight will be pivotal in driving innovation and creating visible impact. This will help you build a wonderful path within Picnic!

  • Solve real-life puzzles: You’ll join one of our business teams and start working on a high-impact project right away. You'll work at the intersection of data, strategy, tech and sustainability, building sustainable long-term solutions to complex business challenges.

  • Innovate across borders: You'll work closely with colleagues from our French and Dutch markets and work on projects that span across borders. Keep in mind: we're building the best milkman on earth!

Sustainability at our core

  • We own the largest electric delivery fleet in grocery retail, enabling emission free deliveries.

  • Our app-only model means that we have unmatched data analytics capability, which enables us to better match supply to demand and minimise food waste.

  • We run a closed-loop recycling system for our plastic bags and several programmes to avoid wasting food products that are approaching their selling date.

From leading to impact
You’ll dive headfirst into one of Picnic’s dynamic business domains, taking a hands-on role from day one. Drawing on your expertise, you’ll lead in-depth analyses, shape project visions, and drive innovative solutions. As your impact grows, so will the scope of your responsibilities. To support your development, you’ll have access to tailored training and mentorship designed to help you build the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in an expanding role.

The projects you’ll be working on will be creating direct value for business growth. Here are some topics through which we shape the future of tech-driven retail and where you can be part of:

  • Personalize the shopping experience for millions, making every app interaction feel tailor-made.

  • Minimize food waste to fuel a more sustainable world.

  • Build the future of robotic fulfilment and warehouse automation at scale.

Your superpowers

  • You have graduated from a Masters degree in a quantitative field

  • You’ve already gained up to 5 years of work experience in high-performing, fast-paced environments; top-tier strategy consulting or entrepreneurial experience is a strong plus

  • You’re energized by taking initiative, solving complex puzzles, and thinking creatively

  • You have a builder mindset: hands-on, curious, and eager to challenge the status quo with practical solutions

  • You have already gained basic knowledge in PowerPoint, Python, SQL, R or similar

  • *An EU citizenship or valid working permit is required for this application

Picnic Perks

🏆 Rewarding Impact from Day One

You’ll receive an attractive compensation package, designed to reward your ambition, drive, and the direct impact you’ll make from your very first project.

🍎Learning & development

You'll always have something to learn with us! You’ll benefit from opportunities like Lepaya training for polishing soft skills or Picnic Tech Academy training in case you want to learn new skills other than what you already know. We also offer free access to trained psychologists via our OpenUp partner, and German language classes if you’d like to get your experience in Germany to the next level.

🗺️Relocation

If you’re moving from another country to join Picnic we make it as smooth as possible for you. We’ll cover your flight costs and a first month's accommodation.

🥗Fresh Lunch, coffee, and snacks

Our offices are equipped with fully-fledged coffee bars and a kitchen. We get delicious fresh and warm lunches every day so you can keep your energy up.

⛳All the rest

At Picnic you get 30 holidays, we cover your travel expenses and offer a pension plan. And your phone and laptop are on us, of course.
