Berlin-based digital auto retailer Auto1 Group SE has announced plans to add more than 2,000 jobs across key European markets — including Germany, France, Italy and Spain — as part of a broader growth strategy aimed at scaling operations to meet increasing demand across its core business units.
The growth initiative includes the accelerated rollout of car-buying centers (such as WirKaufenDeinAuto.de and ComparamosTuCoche in Spain), capacity increases at AutoHero’s ten refurbishment centers, and an expansion of the Auto1.com and AutoHero teams that work with dealers and customers.
“We are expanding our teams with a wide range of positions, from entry-level opportunities to more seasoned professionals. By creating more than two thousand new jobs across Europe, we are not only meeting the rising demand for our products, but we are also shaping the future of our workforce and the automotive industry as a whole,” said Anne-Kristin Müller, senior vice-president of people and operations at Auto1.
“We are investing in our team to unlock the immense market potential ahead of us. There has never been a more exciting time to join AUTO1 Group,” said CEO Christian Bertermann.
The company’s revenue rose by 34% year on year to €1.9 billion ($2.2 billion U.S.) in Q1 2025.
Established in 2012 and a listed company since 2021, Auto1 is present in 30 European countries. It describes itself as “the largest wholesale platform for professional car dealers in Europe.”
