EINLEITUNG Project Arrakis kauft Unternehmen. Nicht gelegentlich, sondern als Kerngeschäft – mit dem Ziel, die führende Gruppe für Mittelstandsberatung in Deutschland aufzubauen. Jede Transaktion verändert die Finanzstruktur: neue Gesellschaften, neue Konsolidierungskreise, neue Reporting-Anforderungen. Was heute für eine Gruppe mit knapp 12 Millionen Euro Umsatz funktioniert, muss morgen für eine Plattform mit 100+ Millionen funktionieren – ohne dass das Finance-Team proportional mitwachsen muss. Du bringst mindestens fünf Jahre Berufserfahrung mit – idealerweise aus Wirtschaftsprüfung, Transaction Advisory Services oder Corporate Finance. Du hast Jahresabschlüsse nicht nur geprüft, sondern verstanden, wie die Zahlen entstehen. Du hast in Due-Diligence-Prozessen gearbeitet und weißt, wo die Risiken liegen, die sich nicht aus dem Zahlenwerk allein erschließen. Oder du kommst aus FP&A in einem wachstumsstarken Umfeld und hast dort Finanzstrukturen aufgebaut, die bei steigender Komplexität funktioniert haben. Du verantwortest das gesamte Spektrum: Rechnungswesen und Konsolidierung auf der einen Seite, Financial Planning & Analysis und Due-Diligence-Unterstützung auf der anderen. Das ist die Realität einer Finanzfunktion im Aufbau, in der du die Chance hast, alles von Grund auf richtig aufzubauen: Prozesse, Systeme, Reporting, Analysemethoden. Die natürliche Entwicklung führt in die Leitung der gesamten Finance-Unit – mit Ownership über Reporting, Planung und Transaktionsunterstützung. Wir messen Fortschritt an Ergebnissen, nicht an Dienstjahren. IHRE AUFGABEN Rechnungswesen & Konsolidierung * Stelle termingerechte und korrekte Monats-, Quartals- und Jahresabschlüsse nach HGB sicher – über mehrere Gesellschaften hinweg, mit wachsender Komplexität durch jede Akquisition. * Steuere Fakturierung, Debitoren- und Kreditorenmanagement und sorge dafür, dass Liquidität und Forderungsmanagement professionell funktionieren. * Treibe die Automatisierung der Buchhaltungsprozesse voran. Jede manuelle Tätigkeit, die du heute noch selbst ausführst, sollte morgen ein System übernehmen. Financial Planning & Analysis * Erstelle Forecasts, Budgets und Szenarioanalysen, die der Geschäftsführung ermöglichen, schnell und fundiert zu entscheiden – nicht als jährliche Übung, sondern als laufendes Steuerungsinstrument. * Baue das Management Reporting auf: Auslastung, Produktivität, Honorarentwicklung, P&L nach Bereichen. * Identifiziere in den Finanzdaten, was andere übersehen – Margenerosion in einem Geschäftsbereich, Auslastungsverschiebungen nach einer Integration, Honorarstrukturen, die nicht zur Strategie passen. Due Diligence & Transaktionsunterstützung * Unterstütze Corporate Development bei der finanziellen Bewertung von Akquisitionszielen: Bewertungsmodelle, Ertragsanalysen, Working-Capital-Berechnungen, Synergiemodellierung. * Analysiere die Finanzdaten potenzieller Targets und identifiziere Risiken und Chancen, die sich nicht aus dem Zahlenwerk allein erschließen. * Tracke nach dem Closing die Performance akquirierter Einheiten gegen den Business Case und liefere die Grundlage für Value-Creation-Entscheidungen. IHR PROFIL Erfahrung & Track Record * Du hast mindestens fünf Jahre in Wirtschaftsprüfung, Transaction Advisory, Corporate Finance oder FP&A gearbeitet und dabei verstanden, wie Unternehmenszahlen entstehen – nicht nur wie man sie liest. * Du hast einen wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen oder quantitativen Hintergrund und ein solides Verständnis von HGB-Rechnungslegung. Ein Wirtschaftsprüferexamen oder fortgeschrittene Prüfungserfahrung ist ein starker Pluspunkt. * Du hast eigenständig Finanzmodelle gebaut, die reale Entscheidungen informiert haben – und weißt, was passiert, wenn Modelle in der Praxis auf unvollständige Daten treffen. Skills & Arbeitsweise * Du modellierst sauber. Keine Hardcodes, nachvollziehbare Formeln, klare Struktur. * Du beherrschst Excel auf einem Niveau, das über Pivot-Tabellen hinausgeht: XLOOKUP, dynamische Szenariomodelle, saubere Datenarchitekturen. Python oder SQL sind ein Plus. * Du denkst in Systemen, nicht in Einzelbuchungen. * Du arbeitest mit KI als Werkzeug für Recherche, Analyse und Prozessautomatisierung. * Du kommunizierst Finanzdaten so, dass Nicht-Finanzler sie verstehen und darauf basierend handeln können. Mindset & Persönlichkeit * Du hast eine natürliche Abneigung gegen Ungenauigkeit – weil du verstanden hast, dass auf unzuverlässigen Zahlen keine zuverlässigen Entscheidungen getroffen werden können. * Du findest den Spagat zwischen operativer Detailarbeit und strategischer Analyse nicht anstrengend, sondern reizvoll. * Du willst eine Finanzfunktion aufbauen, nicht eine bestehende verwalten. * Du bringst den Ehrgeiz mit, dass deine Analysen nicht nur korrekt sind, sondern die beste verfügbare Entscheidungsgrundlage darstellen.
Advise. Invest. Build. Meet ALAIKA — a new kind of Financial Services firm — globally scaling, headquartered in Munich. The work is hard. The bar is high. Partner in 6-7 years possible, for the ones who can keep up and actually build a business themselves on our platform. Stop reading if any of these describe you: * Drive. You need someone to fire the starting gun → We only hire people who can prove they are intrinsically driven and execute. * Ownership. You spot the problem and walk it to your boss → We fall in love with problems. Own them. Solve them. Ship solutions. * Speed. Slow is your default → Speed compounds. Be smart and brave enough to select 80/20 in the right way. * Mindset. "Not possible" is part of your vocabulary → We hire people who always find a way. STILL THERE? THEN ALAIKA MIGHT BE FOR YOU. At ALAIKA, our vision is to build the future of Financial Services with three brands under one roof — Advisory (Strategy Consulting), Capital (Private Equity), Building (Company Builder). Right now, we are in the midst of building our trojan horse ALAIKA Advisory. The ambition: building the leading Financial-Services-specific entrepreneurial holding — Fortune 500 access, PE discipline, Silicon Valley technology-depth and thinking. Three networks that compound and multiply. * One industry. Financial Services. Nothing else. * One focus. The intersection of business and technology — across Strategic Transformations, AI & Data Intelligence, and Cybersecurity. * One goal. Being the go-to partner for the world's leading Fortune 500 financial services companies — and the ones we might help build into that. Founded in October 2022 by Johanna von Geyr (build-up and led Financial Services Practice for a NASDAQ-listed strategy consultancy) and Harald Braunstein (serial entrepreneur with exits incl. IPO), we bring together deep functional domain expertise and networks in global Financial Services, with a proven track record in building, scaling, and investing in leading software product companies. Curious what ALAIKA is all about? Explore our website and introduction deck. Join the movement — apply now. THE ROLE AND WHAT YOU WILL WORK ON * Advise. Take on the most pressing strategic and technology challenges of the world’s leading financial services companies — across Strategy, Data & AI, and Cyber. In the room with decision-makers from day one. * Own. Own your deliverables and your client relationships end-to-end. You are not support staff for the partnership. * Lead. Run workstreams and projects independently. Multiply the output of everyone around you — not just your own. * Sell. Drive business development that other strategic consultancies reserve for managers and partners. At ALAIKA, building the business is not a privilege reserved for managers and partners. It is an expectation. * Grow. Become the rare profile the market is short on — analytical mastermind, financial services expert, entrepreneurial dealmaker. Partner-track from day one. * Build. We are scaling, with real building left to do — IP, processes, go-to-market, strategy. You do not just deliver client work; you co-build the firm. That is not a slogan — it is your Tuesday. WHEN YOU ARE A FIT “Show me an athlete who did well academically. An athlete because they know what it takes to win and they have had to experience loss.” — Kenneth C. Griffin, Founder of Citadel You will work alongside intrinsically driven people chasing an uncapped career — people who do "what it takes". You fear "being one more number stuck in middle management". Your goal is to make it to the top: at ALAIKA itself, at a leading investment or financial services firm, or in a company you build yourself — ALAIKA can help with that too. * Book-smart. Strong academic foundation. Think in structures, not gut feel. * Street-smart. Read the room fast. Prioritise ruthlessly. Grasp commercial reality. * People-smart. Communicate with precision — clear, direct, persuasive. Build trust across functions and seniority. * Athlete performance mindset. High aspirations. Grit. Learn faster than the environment changes. * Entrepreneurial guts. Self-confident achiever. Act first, apologise later — speed is everything. Take full ownership of work normally reserved for far more senior profiles. WHAT YOU BRING * Background. Top 10–20% of your class at a top-tier university. Analytical field — CS, Math, Physics, Finance, or equivalent rigour. * Experience. 1–2+ years in a high-pressure, results-driven environment — top strategy consultancy, PE/VC-backed company, fast-growing tech, or demanding corporate financial services role. Hands-on Data and / or AI experience required. Financial services experience preferred. * Leadership. You have led — a team, a club, a project, a cause. We hire people who make things happen. * Analytical edge. Data-driven by default. Leverage data to drive decisions, not just decorate slides. * Languages. Fluent in English and German. Additional languages are a plus. WHY JOIN ALAIKA * Partner track from day one. Six years from early careers to partner possible. * Compensation. Above market with very entrepreneurial-driven bonus structures. * Stellar Network. Shoulder-to-shoulder with financial services executives running today’s giants and the founders building tomorrow’s. * Offices. Munich and Barcelona. More coming. Plus: the essentials done right — EGYM Wellpass, bike leasing, a kitchen stocked with healthy food and team events worth showing up for: Oktoberfest, team dinners, and more. Advise the leaders. Build what comes next. Invest in the future of Financial Services. Apply with CV, transcripts, and references. Let’s see if you are the one. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Equal Opportunities for all ALAIKA is an equal-opportunity employer. We hire on merit and welcome applications from people of all genders, backgrounds, ages, and identities. Our team spirit celebrates diversity. We want you to be your true “you” and offer everyone an open culture and safe space

Partner in 4-5 years possible, for the ones who can keep up and actually build a business themselves on our platform. Stop reading if any of these describe you: * Specialisation.
