The Finance Manager will ensure that every data point required by institutional investors, grant providers or auditors is accurate, up-to-date and available on demand. The role combines operational accounting tasks with strategic setup of reporting, controls and automation.

- Investor reporting: prepare monthly investor updates and quarterly board packages (P&L, cash flow, KPI scorecard, variance analysis) at institutional standard.
- Manage grants and funding projects (German agencies such as BMWK, BAFA, EU programmes, and US bodies such as Department of Commerce, NIH): drawdowns, usage reports, and audit trails.
- Design and implement AI and automation workflows (Claude/GPT) for variance analysis, reporting drafts and anomaly detection to reduce manual effort and increase accuracy.
- Operational accounting: DATEV bookkeeping, EBICS banking, mail handling, document management, payment runs and invoicing via CRM.
- Transfer pricing & compliance: prepare arm’s-length documentation for the GmbH–US license agreement (IRS §482 / OECD) and readiness for due diligence.

- Experience preparing investor reports, board packages and variance analyses at institutional standards.
- Experience managing public funding/grant processes and compliance documentation.
