Job Description
Finance Manager coordinating daily finance operations from payments to cashflow management in a growing DTC pet nutrition startup. Seeking a finance professional to shape and optimize financial processes.
Responsibilities:
- You coordinate and execute daily finance operations — from payments to ensuring smooth transactional processes
- You perform pre-closing activities for the monthly close and coordinate the full closing cycle with our external tax/accounting firm
- You take ownership of cost controlling: ensuring the accuracy of reports, enabling transparent data sharing, and proactively identifying improvement opportunities to drive profitability
- You establish and optimize processes to make the finance function scalable — leveraging technology to automate and streamline wherever possible
- You monitor and manage cash flow on a daily basis and maintain a 13-week forecast to ensure financial stability and visibility
- You act as the primary contact for external finance stakeholders as well as internal teams for finance-related requests and projects
Requirements:
- You have a degree in Accounting, Finance, Management or a related field
- At least 3 years of experience in finance, ideally with experience in audit/consulting and in start-ups or similarly fast-paced environments
- You understand balance sheets and can read a cash flow statement
- You understand the financial implications of business decisions
- You have managed finance processes across the full cycle — from day-to-day operations and cash flow monitoring to monthly closings, controlling, and providing management with forward-looking insights
- You enjoy shaping finance through projects — from implementing new tools to automating processes — always aiming to make the function more scalable and efficient
- You are comfortable in a dynamic environment where priorities shift, and you know how to push initiatives forward, coordinate with different teams, and ensure tasks are completed even when structures are not yet fully established
- You work analytically, track and interpret key financial KPIs, and provide clear data-driven recommendations — always complemented by business intuition and a focus on supporting decision-making and profitable growth
- Fluent in English; German language skills are a strong plus.
Benefits:
- Flexibility that fits you: work from our Frankfurt am Main office, hybrid, or fully remote within Germany — you decide where and when you’re most productive
- Individual training/certification budget: we actively invest in your growth. You’ll have a personal training and certification budget, and we support recognized finance qualifications (e.g., ACCA, CIMA) or other learning opportunities that advance your career
- Significant responsibility and creative freedom: you’ll own real areas of responsibility and have the chance to shape the role with your input
- Rapid development potential: those who move quickly with us grow in responsibility, skills and career perspective
- Open and honest communication: we encourage direct exchange, give clear feedback and welcome your input
- Access to Corporate Benefits and Wellpass: support for your wellbeing beyond work
- Free HEY HOLY food: because happy dogs are just as important as happy people
- 28 vacation days plus Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day off
