Working Student Finance & Operations (f/m/x)

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is your opportunity to get hands-on experience in an innovative startup and use the skills you have acquired at university.
As part of a small team, you will help manage the day-to-day operations of Mindfuel while also participating in strategic tasks alongside your more senior colleagues. You’ll quickly take ownership of tasks and contribute to real impact within our growing team.
You will be involved in accounting & financial planning, administrative tasks and office life, work with our CRM, and help drive strategic initiatives like the introduction of new tools to increase efficiency.
We are looking for someone who has already gained basic knowledge of finance & accounting and wants to put these skills to use while pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree.
Ideally, you are based in Munich (our office is in Schwabing) or Regensburg (our Senior Finance & Operations Manager is based there) so we can work together in person. Mindfuel is a remote-friendly workplace, though, and some remote work is possible.
Since this is a working student role, you can work up to 20 hours per week and should be able to work a minimum of 15 hours per week on a regular basis. The exact schedule can be arranged to accommodate your other commitments.

What you'll need

• Attention to detail and a structured, reliable way of working
• Strong analytical and numeracy skills
• Good organisational and communication skills
• Team spirit & willingness to support your colleagues
• Fluency in German and English

What we'll offer you

• Fair compensation and plenty of room to learn, experiment, and make an impact from day one

• Flexible working times that make it easy to combine your work with university life — plan your schedule around lectures, exams, or projects and work when it fits best.
• Learning from experienced professionals from day one
• Working in a high-growth environment where your ideas and input matter

• A role in a growing SaaS company in the booming Data & AI space, joining at the ideal moment to make a lasting impact
