Join us!
We are looking for a Controlling Intern to join our Finance team for a one-year, fully remote internship. You will work closely with the team on budgeting, reporting and financial analysis, and gain hands-on experience of how finance supports decision-making in a fast-growing, regulated crypto company.

Run cost analyses and deep dives on specific spend areas, turning the numbers into clear findings and recommendations.
Take a special focus on HR controlling (headcount, payroll and people-related costs) and software spend (licences, subscriptions and vendor costs).
Control credit card expenses
Help improve controlling processes along the way.
About you:
Comfortable with numbers and spreadsheets, and at ease drawing conclusions from data.
Meticulous: you catch the small discrepancy before it becomes a big one.
Proactive: you take initiative, ask questions and propose solutions
Eager to learn and open to feedback.
Fluent in English; previous experience in finance, accounting or controlling is a plus but not required.
Curious about AI and automation tools.
Must have an interest in crypto
