Our Culture
Our culture is unique and is what has made us successful. Flexible like a start-up, yet part of the global Adevinta* family, our team values the entrepreneurial spirit, embodies a “can-do” attitude, and celebrates each other’s contributions. Learn about our four values and the way we work together, which all colleagues had a part in defining from the bottom up.
We succeed, fail and learn together
No one wins or loses on their own. We are one team. We communicate openly and honestly across hierarchies with trust and respect for each other. We don't point a finger when something goes wrong. Instead we learn from it and improve together.
We are the customer
We love and constantly use our own platform. We talk to our customers and rigorously evaluate how we can get better to make our users happy and build on our purpose.
We meet challenges with agility
We see changes and failures as opportunities to improve and face challenges head-on. We work in a pragmatic, iterative and cross-functional way to be able to react quickly to an evolving world and to our customer's needs.
We are united in diversity
We’re a diverse team where everybody is unique. We live inclusion in everything we do and embrace different ways of thinking, working and living to reach the common goal of making our customers happy.
We own a little forest
Means together with Treedom we planted 2.200 trees across eight countries over the globe
We have a sweet tooth
And 120 cakes eaten per year should be proof enough.
We are multinational
Because 30 countries and four continents are represented here.
Why join us?
We believe that work is what you do, not where you do it. We provide flexible work, where teams decide which key moments they want to spend in the office.
Our people really do come first. Four weeks work-from-anywhere per year, part-time work, plus an additional three months fully-paid parental leave time show that we offer a great work-life balance.
We believe in growing our people. We offer lots of development opportunities, a budget for team members and 10% slack time for pet-projects. Being part of Adevinta* also gives you global career opportunities.
Our culture is the glue that holds us together. Regular social team activities (online and offline) make it easy stay connected. On our Campus we enjoy having lunch together, walking around our little pond or meeting at the gym.
We know that our people are the key to our success. Aside from a competitive salary, we offer a pension scheme, an incentive plan that's dependent on what department you are working in, relocation support and more.
Application process
As said, people come first and so do candidates. We try to respond to your application as quickly as possible.
The next steps vary from role-to-role. But the process generally includes a phone call with a recruiter to get to know you a bit better and to clarify your availability and salary expectations. Of course you will have a video interview with the hiring manager and other team members. Depending on the job category you are applying for, expect a coding challenge or case study.
We also put a high value on culture. This means we evaluate candidates according to specific competencies and behaviours, and think about what they can add to the company culture.
Sustainability at eBay Kleinanzeigen
Creating a place for a circular economy is at the heart of eBay Kleinanzeigen’s business model. But did you also know that sustainability for us means having a wider social and environmental responsibility?
Through employee engagement and our great reach across Germany, we support actions like Fridays for Future, Earth Day and Earth Hour, fight cybergrooming and care for homeless people. Our office runs on 100% renewable energy, our marketing communication is already carbon neutral through GoldStandard and Plan Vivo project offsetting. Our team of engaged colleagues is constantly looking at how to be more sustainable as a business and in our personal lives. In order to have a clean campus, we have recycling stations and take part in an annual campus spring cleaning.
