About the role

Our story:
Every year millions of people are either filing their taxes in fear or giving up on their tax refund altogether. We're working on fixing that. Our intuitive app enables anyone, regardless of education or background, to file their taxes with newfound confidence.
Spread across Germany, Spain and the UK, the team at Taxfix Group with its brands Taxfix and Steuerbot, is a compassionate group of solution-finders. We speak our minds openly, and with over 400 professionals, including tax experts, developers, and IT security experts, we're rich in ideas and voices. The group has facilitated more than 3.5 billion euros in tax refunds for its customers since its founding in 2016.

Your challenge
As Financial Analyst, Planning & Reporting Systems, you will build and maintain our planning and reporting models and dashboards, make sure data flows correctly from our source systems, and ensure the numbers the business relies on are accurate and consistent.
Alongside this, you will support core FP&A work such as forecasting, variance analysis and month-end reporting. The role reports to the Senior Director of FP&A and works closely with FinOps, Data and business stakeholders.

Your responsibilities
Build and maintain models in our planning platform, including dimensions, hierarchies and mapping tables, in line with the agreed model design

Build product P&Ls and product dashboards, and prepare the monthly reviews with commercial product owners

Monitor data flows from our ERP, HR and other source systems into the planning platform, and resolve issues together with FinOps and Data

Run monthly reconciliations between the planning platform, the general ledger and reported figures, and document the checks

Support the transition of planning and reporting workflows into the planning platform, in close collaboration with the FP&A team

Support FinOps on the interface between planning and consolidation, so management and statutory views reconcile

Maintain access rights, version control and model documentation

Support and train budget owners in using the platform for their planning and reporting

Automate recurring reports and workflows, using AI tools where they remove manual work

Support core FP&A processes when needed: monthly reporting, forecast updates, variance analysis and management materials

Deliver ad-hoc analysis on product performance to support commercial decisions

Your profile
3+ years of experience in FP&A, controlling, finance systems or a similar analytical finance role, ideally in a fast-growing or subscription-based business; alternatively, a background as implementation consultant for Pigment, Anaplan or similar planning tools

Hands-on experience building models or reports in a modern planning tool (e.g. Pigment, Anaplan, Adaptive); Pigment experience is highly valued

Solid understanding of financial statements and accounting principles, with hands-on experience in budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis

Strong Excel skills and working knowledge of SQL; experience with ERP, consolidation or BI tools (e.g. NetSuite, LucaNet, Looker) is a plus

High attention to detail and care for data quality: you notice when a number does not tie, and you find out why

Hands-on use of AI in finance work (e.g. LLM assistants, AI features in finance and planning tools), and the curiosity to adopt new tools as they mature

Clear communicator, able to explain numbers to non-finance stakeholders

Structured, independent and pragmatic, with a strong sense of ownership
