• Develop documentation, templates, and standards to ensure consistency and knowledge sharing within the finance team.
• Ensure regulatory compliance and audit-readiness of all finance-related processes and outputs.

• Degree in Finance, Accounting, or Economics; professional certifications (CPA, ACCA, CFA, Steuerberater) are a plus.
• 5+ years’ experience in finance, accounting, or controlling, ideally within banking, fintech, or financial services.
• Deep expertise in RechKredV and solid knowledge of HGB & IFRS.
