Finance Working Student


Our Mission For You

trawa is a Berlin-based energy-tech scale-up on a mission to power German industry with 100 % green, intelligent electricity — combining renewable procurement, AI-driven portfolio optimisation, and flexibility services in one platform. We are in a hyper-growth phase, backed by top-tier investors, and now scaling towards Series B.

Join our Finance team in a high-impact role with real ownership from day one. You'll sit at the heart of our daily Finance operations, contribute to how we scale, and take on meaningful responsibility as we prepare for our next growth phase.

You'll work alongside people who came from top strategy consulting, Big Four, and renowned scale-ups — same standards, but in a fast-moving, hands-on environment where you can actually build.

What You'll Own

• Accounts Payable & Expense Management — process invoices and employee expenses end-to-end in Moss and DATEV, from receipt to payment prep

• Month-End Close Support — own defined tasks (reconciliations, accruals prep, documentation) and support clean handovers

• Automation & Processes — spot repetitive tasks and help automate them using Langdock, Airtable, and Excel

• Day-to-Day Finance Ops — support the team on ad-hoc requests, data quality, and internal Finance topics
  
  

Who You Are

• Proven track record with AI and automation workflows — you've built or shipped something using tools like Langdock, Claude, ChatGPT, n8n, or similar

• Proficient in Excel or Google Sheets — you're comfortable with complex formulas, pivot tables, and structured data work
