?? Are you ready for a new edition of "Meet the Donkey Squad"? As we kicked this off last year, we are happy to start this year with our amazing Simone Brizzi, who started as a bike mechanic in Berlin and is now the Country Manager of Germany ????. Excited to learn more? Let's dive in! ? ???What made you want to start working at Donkey Republic? I started as a simple bike mechanic, I was coming from years of work behind a desk and I desired to move into the "hands-on" department. Then I had the chance to develop into a lead mechanic in the city of Berlin and to develop even further into a City and then Country manager. It has been an amazing and exciting adventure so far. ???You are the Country Manager for Germany. Tell us more about this role! My work entails many aspects regarding the present and future of German operations: building happy teams to face the many challenges that our business poses, making sure the partners we work with are heard, and that our riders get the best riding experience. We are also looking at new cities where we could bring our beloved Donkeys! ???What is the most challenging part? So far I had a lot of fun, of course, there are easier and harder days, but that's life. I do enjoy challenges, they fire me up! I would say the most important and challenging part is keeping everybody happy. Partners, Coworkers, Headquarters. I am not sure if I manage all the time, but I try hard every day. ???What other role within the company would you be most interested in trying out for a day, and why? I am a creative soul so I would want to try a day in the Marketing team. Brainstorming for a campaign that could reach many people and resonate is super exciting to me. I am also known for being terrible at selling anything, so I would also be very happy to learn the ropes with the Bizdev team. ???Let’s say we invited ourselves over for dinner. What would be on the three-course menu? I am a big fan of Tiramisu, I will never miss it from my table. I enjoy food from all over the world, even if my capabilities are mostly in the Italian direction. You can expect a lasagna or a pasta for sure and you might even try your luck with a Curry or a Burrito. #DonkeyRepublic #MeetTheDonkeySquad #DonkeySquad #MeetTheTeam
