Finance Operations Manager (f/m/d) - Part Time

Finperks is a Berlin-based FinTech company building a unified infrastructure for prepaid products, including gift cards, airtime, and eCash, accessible through a single API. Our platform helps businesses integrate and distribute prepaid products efficiently, reducing complexity in a traditionally fragmented value chain.

The company was founded by serial entrepreneurs who previously built and scaled Viafintech (Barzahlen) to over 100 employees and successfully exited the business in 2021 through a sale to the NYSE-listed Paysafe Group. This background provides Finperks with a stable foundation, clear strategic direction, and experienced leadership from day one.

As an early-stage company, Finperks offers an interesting and varied finance operations environment: clean processes to set up, growing transaction volumes, and close collaboration with founders, banks, and tax advisors. At the same time, the business is built with a long-term, sustainable mindset, prioritizing solid financial operations, transparency, and compliance over rapid but uncontrolled growth.

Finperks is a small, collaborative team based in Berlin-Charlottenburg. We value reliability, ownership, and pragmatic execution. For a Finance Operations professional, this means working in a well-managed startup environment with clear responsibilities, predictable workflows, and leadership that understands the importance of strong finance fundamentals.
