A bright, daylight-flooded interior shot shows two smiling women chatting in a modern office. One woman has wavy blonde hair and is wearing a white knitted jumper with loose sleeves. She is standing at a standing desk, leaning on it with her hand, whilst looking at the other woman and laughing. The second woman has dark, curly hair, which she wears in a bun, and is wearing a white, loose-fitting blouse. She is standing to the right of the blonde woman, with her back slightly turned towards the viewer, and is looking at her. On the desk to the left are a computer screen and a VoIP telephone. Behind the two women, in front of the large windows offering a view of an adjacent building, is an oblong plant pot containing green office plants. The light in the room is bright and natural.

THIS IS WHO WE ARE.

We are one of Hamburg’s leading co-operatives for socially just housing – and a team that sticks together. Sustainability and solidarity shape everything we do, whilst innovation and our values define our culture. Many people just pay lip service to these ideas, but we truly live by them: for us, community spirit and humanity are our top priorities. We look forward to getting to know you! 

A PERFECT MATCH?

WE ARE YOUR HOME, ...

  • if you want to develop yourself and your knowledge of sustainable living in Hamburg
  • if you enjoy working with people, responding to their needs and think in terms of ‘we’ rather than ‘I’.
  • if you’d rather get stuck in than spend ages chatting – although having a natter in the kitchen is, of course, still part of the job here.

WHAT EMPLOYEES SAY.

Not only is there honest work waiting for you here, but there are also honest people. We asked some of them to share their thoughts: “What’s it like to be part of KAIFU?”

“I enjoy working with people and helping them find a new home. The work is meaningful, I enjoy it, and the mix of outdoor appointments, office work and a great team keeps things interesting.”

TYPICAL KAIFU

OUR IDENTITY.

1

Humanity

We treat each other as equals. We’re on first-name terms with one another – and we’ll make sure you feel truly welcome from day one. There’s no place for any form of discrimination in our culture. With us, you’re simply you.

2

Clarity

We say what we mean – and we mean what we say. You can rely on our word completely. Some call it ‘Hanseatic coolness’. We call it ‘Hanseatic clarity’. No beating about the bush, no fuss, just plain, clear words.

3

Team spirit

Together, we can achieve anything. We have a flat hierarchy and a strong sense of team spirit. And so we celebrate our successes together.

He is holding an open black laptop in his hands and is intently using the touchpad or keyboard. The server room in the background is filled with wired network switches and patch panels, from which numerous colourful network cables (yellow, green, blue, pink) extend.
