Finance Associate – FP&A & Special Projects

About the role

You will operate at the intersection of finance and strategy, supporting the Finance team in driving sustainable growth in a fast-moving, complex environment. We are looking for a highly adaptable individual who thrives in ambiguity and is genuinely excited by the "chaos" of setting up critical financial infrastructure from scratch.

What you'll do

• Financial Reporting: Support the preparation of detailed financial and administrative reports, ensuring accuracy and transparency
• Financial Modelling & Analysis: Build and refine financial models, and assist in the budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis cycles, helping to identify risks and opportunities
• Process Setup & Operations: Help build and maintain financial processes from the ground up, including data management within financial systems
• Ad-Hoc & Project Support: Support high-impact projects in collaboration with regional Finance teams, handle ad-hoc finance tasks, and help manage relationships with external service providers

What you'll need

• A completed bachelor's degree in accounting, business administration or a related field
• 2–3 years of professional experience including internships in auditing or advisory, consulting, or investment banking or similar is preferred
• A hardworking and flexible mindset; comfortable working under tight deadlines, navigating ambiguity, and building processes from scratch
• Excellent English communication skills; professional fluency in German is a plus
• Solid understanding of financial statements and financial modelling (strong Excel skills are essential)
• Collaborative, service-oriented approach to teamwork — high standards, low ego
• High priority on responsibility, absolute confidentiality, a very structured way of working, as well as dedication and reliability
