Level and Progression:

A Lead brings specialist skills to one business area, running complex operational tasks and leading smaller projects independently, with only punctual support from manager.

From there, you can progress to a Manager level within the same function, or progress sideways to a role in another team at HelloFresh for which you have transferable skills.

Recruitment process: you will first have a phone and cultural-fit interview with a member of our Talent Acquisition team. Should you be successful, you will be asked to complete an Excel test at home. Depending on the results, you will have one competency video interview with the hiring manager in which you will be asked to present a case study.
