How to apply for Werkstudent:in Landwirtschaft und betriebliche Datenprüfung (all genders) (Berlin I DE Remote möglich)

About Klim

Klim is a Berlin-based agri-tech startup backed by a $22 million Series A. It works with farmers and food companies like Nestlé and Kaufland to make regenerative agriculture scalable and financially viable for farmers. Since 2020, it has supported 3,500 farmers managing over 900,000 hectares.

About the role

This is a working student role in agriculture and operational data verification, starting 07.09.2026 and ending 28.02.2027. You support Klim's platform by checking farm data related to regenerative measures such as soil health, biodiversity, and CO2 sequestration. The role is part-time and can be done remotely within Germany, with a Berlin office option. It matters because accurate data is the basis for paying farmers and proving emission reductions to food companies.

A typical day

You review farm data submitted through Klim's platform, checking for completeness and accuracy related to regenerative measures. You may communicate with farmers or internal teams in German to clarify data issues. You work part-time and remotely, with occasional coordination with the Berlin office if needed.

Who Klim is looking for

• Enrolled student in agriculture, agronomy, environmental science, or a related field, with knowledge of regenerative practices like cover crops, reduced tillage, or crop rotation.
• Fluent in German and able to work with German-speaking farmers and stakeholders.
• Detail-oriented and comfortable reviewing large sets of farm data for accuracy and completeness.
• Available from 07.09.2026 to 28.02.2027 for part-time work, with the ability to work remotely in Germany.

Tips for this application

• Write your application in German. The job description is in German and the role requires active collaboration with German-speaking stakeholders.
• Mention your specific knowledge of regenerative agriculture practices. Klim works on soil health, biodiversity, and CO2 sequestration, so show you understand these topics.
• Confirm your availability for the exact period 07.09.2026 to 28.02.2027 and state that you are enrolled as a student.
• If you have experience with farm data, agricultural software, or data verification, describe it concretely. This role is about operational data review.
• Check Klim's website for their platform and farmer network. Refer to their work with Nestlé or Kaufland if relevant to your motivation.

What to cover in your cover letter

['Why you want to work on regenerative agriculture and farm data verification specifically at Klim, not just any agri-tech company.', 'Your German language skills and ability to communicate with farmers and German-speaking stakeholders.', 'Any hands-on agricultural experience or coursework in soil health, biodiversity, or carbon farming.', 'Your attention to detail and ability to work part-time while enrolled, with clear availability from 07.09.2026 to 28.02.2027.']

Research before applying

• Read Klim's website, especially their platform features and how they calculate carbon sequestration or biodiversity outcomes.
• Look up the regenerative agriculture practices Klim promotes, such as soil health restoration and CO2 binding.
• Research Klim's partnerships with Nestlé and Kaufland to understand how farm data is used in supply chains.
• Check Klim's LinkedIn page for recent posts about their work with farmers and any updates since their Series A funding.

Likely interview topics

Based on the job description, expect questions about:

• How would you verify farm data for regenerative measures like cover cropping or reduced tillage?
• What do you know about Klim's platform and how it supports farmers financially?
• Describe a time you found an error in a dataset. How did you handle it?
• How would you communicate with a farmer who submitted incomplete or unclear data?
• Why are you interested in a fixed-term working student role from September 2026 to February 2027?

Common mistakes to avoid

• Applying in English when the role requires German fluency and collaboration with German-speaking stakeholders.
• Ignoring the fixed-term dates. The role runs from 07.09.2026 to 28.02.2027, so do not apply if you cannot commit to that period.
• Writing a generic cover letter that does not mention regenerative agriculture, farm data, or Klim's specific work with farmers and food companies.
