Job description

(12-month fixed-term maternity cover)

This role is part of our picdrop team, one of our growing brands at saas.group.

picdrop is a Berlin-based, photographer-driven company simplifying image sharing and collaboration since 2014. Now part of the saas.group portfolio, picdrop offers a powerful, user-friendly platform to easily transfer, share, and manage images with clients. Trusted by over 200,000 photographers, designers, and creative teams, our tool streamlines workflows and makes collaboration intuitive and seamless. We're passionate about creating the ultimate tool for creative professionals, empowering them to focus on their craft.

Profile Overview

We are looking for a hands-on, broad marketer to cover a 12-month parental leave on our small Berlin-based team. You will keep our partner, affiliate and influencer programs running and growing, help us test what works in B2B lead generation across the DACH market, and own our presence at the events where our customers actually are. This is a generalist role with real ownership from week one: short decision paths, no long onboarding, and the freedom to try things and keep what works.

Your immediate impact in the first 3-6 months will be:

  • Take over the partner, affiliate and influencer programs and keep them moving: pay partners on time, look after the ones we have, and onboard new ones.
  • Launch and measure one or two B2B lead-generation experiments, so we learn what actually pulls in the DACH market (sports clubs, media agencies, brand teams) instead of guessing.
  • Plan and run our presence at an industry event end to end, from booth to follow-up, and track the leads back to what the event actually brought in.

Your responsibilities

  • Run and grow our affiliate program: partner onboarding, commissions, payouts and reporting.
  • Own our influencer and partner portfolio, from photographers and industry associations to event partners, and keep partner, affiliate and creator activity pulling in one direction.
  • Plan and test B2B campaigns for segments like sports clubs, media agencies and brand teams, working closely with our customer success team on what converts.
  • Plan and run our presence at photography festivals, trade shows and industry events, and organise our own formats such as photographer meetups and workshops with partners.
  • Turn event and partner contacts into leads, and decide what to do more of based on the numbers.

What you bring to the table

  • 4+ years in B2B SaaS marketing, with campaigns or partner/affiliate programs you owned end to end, ideally touching the creative industry.
  • Strong writing and communication in both German and English: you can draft a landing page and an email sequence in each. (Native German not required.)
  • Comfort with numbers: you turn data into decisions rather than dashboards.
  • Hands-on event experience: you have planned a trade show or event presence before and know how to make it pay off.
  • A generalist who sees the work and gets going fast, and likes owning things in a small team without a lot of structure around you.
  • A feel for photography or the creative industry is a real advantage: you understand who our customers are and what they care about.

What's in it for you

  • Ultimate flexibility: We're 100% remote. You can work from wherever you like, whenever you like.
  • Freedom and autonomy: We're a high-trust team, and you'll be given lots of flexibility to solve problems in your own way, with plenty of help from the team when you need it.
  • Minimum bureaucracy: We don't like to get bogged down with meetings and red tape. We like to be efficient and keep momentum steady and sustainable.
  • Small and friendly team: We help each other out, have fun, and joke around.
  • Our network: We are a community of entrepreneurial SaaS professionals that regularly exchange ideas, knowledge, learning and expertise with each other internally.
  • Flexible time off: We want you to recharge your batteries when needed.
  • Real ownership: segments and programs with your name on them from day one.

picdrop is part of saas.group and we have a shared goal of succeeding together.
