Job description

Join to apply for the Finance and Operations Associate (f/m) role at Point Nine

Point Nine is an early‑stage venture capital firm focused on B2B software. Rooted in Europe but investing globally, we partner with around 10‑15 new companies each year. To date, we’ve invested in 200+ startups, including Algolia, Attio, Contentful, Clio, Delivery Hero, Docplanner, Factorial, incident.io, Loom, Poolside, Preply, Revolut, Sereact, Zendesk, and many other amazing companies that make up the P9 Family.

We’re currently looking for a Finance and Operations Associate (f/m) who wants to thrive in the world of VC ops long term and join us at our Berlin office.

What you’ll be doing

• You’ll be our chief data collector (especially regarding portfolio companies) and our data analyst/provider (eg. for Dealroom publications).
• You’ll own and maintain a consistent portfolio KPI reporting.
• You’ll be responsible for the transaction processing (payments, capital calls) for multiple international entities.
• You’ll be working on preparatory bookkeeping (bank statements, invoices, and travel expenses through Candis and Pleo) and digital filing for our funds and related companies.
• You’ll get exposure to a large range of transactions (from seed and later stage rounds, through venture debt or M&A to IPOs) and will work on captables.
• You’ll support the submission of regulatory reporting (eg. German Federal Bank, FATCA, CRS) and preparation of financial statements and audits.
• You’ll drive the transformation of our workflows towards more automation and help implement state‑of‑the‑art tools.
• You’ll assist our legal team in compiling investment related documentation.
• You’ll report to our Operating Partner but will support the whole ops team.

Who you are

• Biased for action - You enjoy making things happen and always find something to improve. You don’t wait for instructions, you anticipate issues and act.
• Dependable and organised - You’re known for your reliability and juggling multiple tasks, and keeping systems neat is your superpower.
• People‑savvy and discreet - You’re down to earth, professional and an excellent communicator. You treat sensitive information with absolute discretion.
• Quick on your feet - You don’t get stuck, you figure it out. Faced with ambiguity or new situations, you apply common sense and move forward.
• Detail‑obsessed - You take pride in accuracy and clean records. You double‑check your work and keep everything tidy.
• Independent yet collaborative - You can own projects end to end but you also thrive in a small, collaborative team where everyone pitches in.
• Flexible and open to change - You thrive in a fast paced environment; you don’t mind substantial swings in workloads and changing priorities.

What you bring

You love the mix of finance, ops and technology and you want to make an impact in a highly dynamic environment. Besides, we expect:

• A university degree with an excellent academic record.
• At least 2 years of relevant experience in VC/PE operations, fund administration, a family office, Big‑4 firm or banking.
• You have strong analytical skills, deep knowledge of Excel and Google suite; you enjoy working with data and keeping it clean.
• You’re tech‑curious and like using automation tools to make life easier.
• You’re fluent in English and German.

What we offer

• A flexible working environment and a chance to see how a globally active early stage VC fund operates from the inside.
• An international team where you can take ownership and choose your own learning curve.
• Competitive compensation plus allowances for your phone, gym and language classes.
