Bert Bröske

Before joining XING, I spent over 6 years at Google

where I held positions in the headquarter in Mountain View, their European headquarter in Dublin and in Hamburg. The main focus for me was implementing scalable ways to acquire new agencies and SMBs in Germany, Austria and Switzerland for Googles advertising products. In Dublin, I was responsible for the 14-people-strong German agency sales team with a multi-million dollar turnover. In Hamburg I was responsible growing the co-marketing initiatives of Google in Middle and Northern Europe together with public institutions as well as commercial partners.

Growing and scaling a business
I joined Google in California in 2002, when the company just started their international expansion. I then saw the Dublin team grow from just 35 people to over 1200 and played a key role in growing and establishing not only the German language team in Dublin. I then joined XING in Hamburg at a stage with just 150 employees and saw the company grow to over 300 in just 18 months. I thus have a broad experience in helping organizations grow and scaling their business.
