About the role

YOUR ROLE
Numbers are not an end in themselves for you – they are the basis for good decisions? You would rather not be a small cog in a large finance department, but take on real responsibility and get deep insight into how a fintech runs? Then you are in the right place.

As a (Junior) Finance Manager (m/f/d), you will work in a small, high-impact finance team, side by side with the VP Finance – taking on responsibility from day one. From day-to-day accounting through month- and year-end close to reporting, forecasts and the automation of our processes, you cover the full breadth – and see first-hand how your work lands with management, investors and the board. In doing so, you build a deep understanding of the financial steering of one of Europe's leading digital wealth managers – and actively help shape it.

What you'll actually do
Month-end close: You independently take on recurring reporting and closing tasks and make sure our month-end close is done – on time and reliably.

Year-end close: You support the preparation of the HGB annual financial statements and work alongside our accountants and auditors during the audit.

Reporting: You create KPIs and financial metrics for management presentations and contribute to investor and board materials.

Analysis: You build financial models, forecasts and variance analyses, turning numbers into solid insights.

Process automation: You digitalise and automate our finance processes – among other things using AI applications – and find the tools that make us faster tomorrow.

WHAT YOU BRING
Experience & qualifications: You have completed a commercial apprenticeship (kaufmännische Ausbildung) and/or a degree. First hands-on experience in accounting/controlling, consulting, investment banking or venture capital is a plus.

Analytical skills: Numbers are your home turf: you think analytically, work confidently in Excel and quickly find your way around tools like NetSuite, Abacum, Moss or PowerPoint. Experience with automation and AI tools is a plus – you'll learn a lot of it on the job with us.

Mindset: You bring a proactive, diligent and detail-oriented way of working and thrive in a dynamic, fast-growing startup environment. You're ambitious, enjoy taking ownership and see things through independently.

Language: You speak fluent English (at least C1) and feel at home in an international working environment. Knowledge of German is a plus.
