Bilanzbuchhalter/in (IHK) / Finance Manager (m/w/d) — 20 hrs./week, hybrid

Berlin
Part-time
Permanent employee
30,000 - 40,000 € per year

Your mission

The role  
You own the operational finance layer end-to-end: bookkeeping, grant documentation, invoice management, and month-end support. You work directly with our Fractional CFO (2 days/week) and report into the COO. Hands-on — you'll be the person who actually knows where every euro is. 

What you'll do 
  • Bookkeeping in DATEV — hands-on entries today, with a mid-term goal of owning and driving automation of the booking process 
  • Own the invoice-to-payment process: collecting, categorizing, approving, and initiating payments 
  • Grant financial documentation and reporting: cost allocation, Mittelanforderungen, budget deviation reports (IBB, PTJ, EU) 
  • Maintain the fixed asset register and depreciation schedules (CAPEX-heavy environment) 
  • Month-end close: reconciliations, expense categorization, cash flow input 
  • Improve and partly automate finance processes as we scale

Your profile

  • Bilanzbuchhalter/in qualification (IHK) or equivalent; alternatively a finance degree with 4+ years of hands-on accounting experience 
  • DATEV — you're the one doing the entries 
  • Solid HGB knowledge; Jahresabschluss experience a plus 
  • Experience with German public grant accounting (IBB, PTJ, EU) — strong plus, not a dealbreaker 
  • Very fluent German (C2), good English (internal comms in English) 
  • Startup-comfortable: things change, you figure it out 
  • German payroll (Lohnabrechnung) is a plus

Why us?

  • Full ownership of the finance function — no layers in between 
  • Small, international team 
  • Growing company with the opportunity to grow with it 
  • Hybrid working (on-site presence every ~2 months appreciated) 
  • Competitive salary plus Deutschlandticket or Urban Sports Club membership 
  • Direct collaboration with an experienced Fractional CFO
