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.\nThe 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.
