Head of Finance

Head of Finance at bunch, rebuilding the finance function from the ground up as the company scales from Series B toward Series C and exit. You'll own capital, forecasting, budgeting, investor reporting, M&A finance, and ERP implementation, reporting to the General Counsel and working directly with the founders and management team.

What you'll do

• Own the full budgeting cycle end-to-end — top-down and bottom-up — working with founders, department heads, and all teams; run monthly variance reviews, drive quarterly budget control processes, and translate business strategy into financial plans with clear KPIs and milestones.
• Build and maintain a robust cash forecasting model, providing regular management updates on burn rate and runway.
• Prepare monthly and quarterly updates for board meetings, present financial performance to investors, and field questions on KPIs and progress.
• Set up the analytical foundations expected of a Series C/D company: own unit economics, cohort analyses, and profitability modelling; centralise Finance as the single source of truth for financial and operational KPIs; drive data quality improvements; and support commercial strategy with pricing analysis.
• Lead all financial aspects of equity rounds — modelling, due diligence management, and investor responses; get bunch Series C ready.
• Manage financial due diligence on acquisitions, build M&A models, support target selection, and own Finance's role in post-merger integration.
• Own bunch's banking relationships and build a strong network of German and European banking partners; manage liquidity optimisation strategies and establish treasury policies.
• Scope and lead the implementation of an ERP system across the bunch group; own non-dilutive funding disbursements and lead future applications.

What you'll need

• 6+ years of progressive experience in an in-house finance role (ideally SaaS or VC-backed environment), PE, reputable management or financial consultancy, and/or investment banking, with at least 3+ years in a leadership role.
• Proven experience in VC-backed financing rounds post-Series B.
• Track record of building robust financial models from scratch and comfort working with multi-entity and multi-currency structures.
• Familiarity with accounting, billing, and spend management tools (e.g. DATEV, Stripe, Moss, Spendesk) as well as ERPs (NetSuite, etc.).
• Proven ownership of forecasting and budgeting cycles, not just supporting them.
• Hands-on now, strategic later; wants to "do" and build from scratch, not just managing others.
• Combines excellent technical expertise with versatility, commercial flexibility and presence to be the strategic finance partner for management and represent bunch to investors.
• Fluent in English, B2/C1+ German strongly preferred.

Nice to have

• Fund industry or fintech experience.
• Comfort with operating with ambiguity and building processes where none or few exist.

• Hybrid office setup (3 days/week in office) with 6 remote calendar weeks/year.
• 28 days of vacation, 2 company days, plus local public holidays.
