We are looking for an analytical and organizational talent as operational support for our CFO. You will take responsibility for critical data processes, support transactions, and ensure smooth operations at the heart of our VC Fund. You will learn a lot about startups and the functioning of Venture Capital, but it is explicitly not an investment role.

• Datenbankmanagement: Setup and maintenance of our Capabilities, Portfolio, and Investors database, as well as internal key figures.

• You communicate easily and professionally with various stakeholders and have an open and positive basic attitude.
• You bring practical experience in the field of Finance and/or Operations, e.g., through internships or previous professional activity. A background in Business Administration, Economics, or Information Systems is advantageous.
• You think proactively and steer processes well, keeping an overview and almost forgetting nothing.
• You work accurately with data and are proficient in Excel/Google Sheets.
• You enjoy solving administrative hurdles through automation and smart tools and have already gained some experience.

Benefits

We offer:

• Gain an in-depth insight into the backoffice of a VC Fund.
• Your work will make our organization better, feel the impact you can make.
• Work in a flexible environment, in our office in Berlin Mitte and if you like also from home.

How to apply:

Please answer two of these three questions in a cover letter, which can be bullet points.

1. What excites you about this role with us: what do you really want and what do you think you can learn?

2. Remember: When did you almost overlook a critical mistake – and how did you catch it anyway?

3. Automation is your favorite word? Tell us about a task that you made unnecessary through tools/automations – not only did you save time, but also eliminated errors.

What happens next?:

• We will ask you to send a short video to get to know you better
• 30-minute video interview with our CFO
• 60-minute personal interview with our CFO and another team member

We offer a family-friendly working environment including flexible working hours. We celebrate diversity and strive to build teams that represent a wide range of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. Therefore, we explicitly encourage applicants with seemingly unconventional life stories to apply.
