Communications Manager (m/f/d)

“A Company built on the idea of change”

Oatly is a company built on the idea of change. We exist to make it easy for people to eat better and live healthier lives without recklessly taxing the planet’s resources in the process. It's why we come to work every day. We believe in making tasteful oat-based food products accessible to a wider audience in a world-class manner and drive the plant-based movement forward while doing so. In case you didn’t know, we’re somewhat of a pi-oat-neer and have invented the modern oat drink in the middle of the 90s in the South of Sweden, where our head office is still based. We now exist in many different countries worldwide and our Barista Edition has conquered the coffee scene by storm. Out of Berlin, we stir the business for DACH and Poland and now we’re looking for you, because, if all of this resonates, maybe you want to work for Oatly, too!
