Working at Brammibal's

Brammibal's Donuts is a vegan donut company founded in 2015 by our two CEOs, Jessica and Bram. Today, we run ten locations in Berlin and five in Hamburg, serving our delicious vegan donuts and specialty coffee. Join us and help change the perception of plant-based food - one donut at a time.

Working at Berlin-Brandenburg Airport (BER)

This role is based at Berlin-Brandenburg Airport (BER), one of Europe’s most important transport hubs, where you’ll delight travellers with donuts and specialty coffee in a dynamic, international workplace.

Our airport store operates from early mornings through late evenings, including weekends and public holidays — flexibility with shift work is essential. Opening shifts start as early as 03:30am and closing shifts last until 22:00pm. There’s no classic 9-to-5 here, but in return you’ll experience real variety: flight schedules, rush hours and an international crowd ensure that no two days are the same.

For working at the airport, all team members need to apply for an airport ID badge (Flughafenausweis) and a security clearance according to §7 LuftSiG. Don’t worry — we fully support you throughout the entire process and guide you step by step.

Heads up: This role is for our BER Airport shop, but while all required airport access and security approvals are still in process, you’ll start your journey with us in one of our Berlin city shops. Once everything is fully approved, you’ll move into your role at the airport shop.

All FOH team members should be open and flexible to support across our different shops when needed. We work as one team and support each other where it’s needed most, keeping things running smoothly across all locations.

By the way, getting to Berlin-Brandenburg Airport (BER) from the city is super easy thanks to the new fast train connections:

• From Berlin Südkreuz to BER: it takes about 14 minutes on the Airport Express or regional trains, super quick!

• From Berlin Ostkreuz to BER: you can reach the airport in roughly ~19–20 minutes on direct regional train services.

About the job

• As part of our Service / FOH Team, you'll be one of the faces of Brammibal's Donuts in an international airport setting, serving guests from all over the world with a big, warm smile: helping them with your donut expertise, and making the most delicious coffee - these are the most important parts of your job.

• Teamwork is very important to us. You’ll always be working alongside several team members, supporting each other and keeping things running smoothly during busy travel times.

• You will also help with the daily cleaning and organization in the store, so that the presentation of our donuts is always on point.

• Each of our stores is managed by a Shop Manager, who is your direct supervisor and will instruct and support you in your daily work. You’ll never be left alone to figure things out: a member of our leadership team is always on site to support you, answer questions and help you grow into your role with confidence.

Please note that we receive quite a large number of applications for this position. We do our best to keep you updated and to interview as soon as possible, but it might take a while to get back to you. Thank you for understanding. We look forward to hearing from you! ️
