Job Description

At Flussbad, we are creating a new kind of hospitality — one that connects nature, culture, and community. Our campus on the banks of Spree River in Berlin-Rummelsburg brings together experiences in gastronomy, wellbeing, learning, and cultural programming, with sustainability, creativity, and human connection at its core.

Flussbad is part of Slowness — a collective of people, places, and projects that reframe the way we live, work, and interact. Drawing insights from regenerative agriculture, adaptive reuse, and the slow movement, Slowness is developing destinations around the world that offer a deeper, more conscious, and collaborative form of hospitality.

Reethaus—a semi-subterranean performance space—is a cornerstone of the Flussbad campus. Envisioned as a modern-day temple, it integrates a 360-degree spatial sound system to support immersive installations, body-mind practices, creative expression, and holistic learning. As the campus expands, Reethaus sets the tone for a dynamic intersection of art, hospitality, and cultural innovation deeply inspired by Berlin’s creative spirit.

About Slowness

Slowness is a collective of people, places and projects that reframe the way we live and interact.

In times of great haste, we dare to be slow. Not a mere shift in velocity but an altered state of being. We break cycles of distraction and destruction, opening deep chasms of reflection and space for energetic insight. Slowness defies conventions, embracing the imperfect, the strange and indigenous. Not the prettiest apple but the tastiest, the unaltered, the one that bends the branch.

Slowness has been quietly unfolding since the creation in 2016 of La Granja Ibiza. The transformation of a dormant agricultural plot into a working farmstead devoted to discourse around food set the stage for a new kind of hospitality concept. We began to assemble a community of designers, farmers, writers, artists, artisans and architects whose work engages with slowness toward a resetting of values in hospitality and beyond.

Cultivating arts, crops and inner gardens, we build and nourish locally rooted places that offer a deeper, more conscious form of hospitality—not a “pit stop” away from the hectic pace of daily life but a continuous journey of reconnection, of learning to live in harmony with nature, our community and ourselves. Drawing on the insights of the slow movement, adaptive reuse, and regenerative agriculture, we take a localized, conscientious approach to every element in the creation of integrated aesthetic environments designed to enrich wellbeing and model a more sustainable future.

We draw inspiration from idealistic collectives of the past, like the 1920s experimental Catskills retreat Yama Farms or the legendary avant-garde incubator Black Mountain College, which looked to traditional cultures and crafts as they dreamed up wildly innovative new forms. To be slow is not merely to decrease the pace of life. It’s about taking the time to reconsider our actions and think more deeply and responsibly about how we live.
