Job Description

An old VW bus, a few euros in your pocket, and a desire for independence. That's all you need to get started.



Because every degree comes to an end at some point, Mirco and Lorenz asked themselves the big question in 2002: What is the meaning of life? The answer: Go where you feel most at home—to your favorite café, your local bar, or straight to the beach. A cola was needed – as a cultural asset, not a mass-produced commodity. No sooner said than done, the recipe was developed – not too sweet, but with lots and lots of caffeine to keep you going through the night. Added to this were black-and-white printed faces on beer bottles, with a name as Hanseatic and honest as their cosmopolitan homeland. Allow us to introduce fritz.



Today we are a little bigger, with spritzers and lemonades added to the range, but the glass bottles are small and the contents have remained natural. The journey continues. To all those who go through life awake. Because the world belongs to those who are awake.



We are looking for you to join our headquarters in Hamburg as soon as possible as Lead Brand Management (m/w/d).
