Our Mission
At Circus (Xetra: CA1), headquartered in Munich with offices in Berlin and Hamburg, we are pioneering global developments in on-demand autonomous food production. From culinary creation to production and operations, everything is powered by seamlessly integrated robotics and transformative AI.
Our foundation lies in groundbreaking advancements in robotics, driven by artificial intelligence — the long-missing link in realizing fully autonomous food automation. The time has come for a new status quo: just as autonomous vehicles are reshaping our cities and daily lives, we are redefining the entire experience of food.
Our team brings together leading minds in Robotics, AI, Engineering, and Culinary, working closely with industry-leading partners to revolutionize how food is prepared, accessed, and experienced.
Join us as we shape a future where the art of cooking meets the science of technology — and where food becomes something fundamentally new.
About the Role
We are looking for a visionary, capital-markets-savvy Head of Investor Relations to lead our financial storytelling and build long-term relationships with the investment community. In this role, you won’t just explain what we do — you’ll pitch why it matters.
You’ll play a central role in shaping how Circus is perceived by institutional and strategic investors: turning our bold mission, product innovation, and market traction into a compelling investment case. You will work closely with our CFO, CEO and management team to position Circus as one of the most exciting innovation stories in Europe and globally — and attract investors who share our ambition.
If you bring a unique combination of financial fluency, narrative instinct, and capital markets credibility — and thrive on building high-trust relationships — we’d love to meet you.
