Job description

At Circus (Xetra: CA1), headquartered in Munich, we are pioneering global developments in on-demand autonomous food production. Everything from creation to production and operation – enabled by seamlessly integrated cutting-edge robotics and transformative AI technology.

Our foundation rests in the developments of groundbreaking robotics driven by artificial intelligence, previously the missing link in achieving true autonomous food automation. This is the moment for a new status quo: Just as autonomous driving will disrupt how we build cities, organize our days, and live our lives, so will we shift our whole reality around food.

Our Team is backing a paradigm shift in one of humanity's most important sectors with the sharpest minds in Robotics, AI, Engineering and Culinary, collaborating closely with industry-leading partners to revolutionize every aspect of the food service experience.

Join us as we forge ahead, crafting a future where the art of cooking and the science of technology converge to create a world that thinks differently about food than it has for thousands of years—a world where food means something new.

Our Finance team keeps the numbers behind Circus's growth accurate, timely, and audit-ready. As Financial Accountant, you own the day-to-day accounting that everything else builds on — general ledger, AP/AR, fixed assets — and play a direct role in closing our books and supporting group reporting. It's a hands‑on role with real ownership from day one, working closely with both the internal Finance team and external partners.
This position is available both full-time and part-time.

• Proficient user of DATEV
• Basic knowledge of HGB (German GAAP)
• Fluent in German and English, written and spoken
• Independent, team-oriented, and hands‑on working style

• Further qualification as "Finanzbuchhalter" or equivalent
• SAP and/or MS Dynamics experience
• Interest in developing further, potentially toward a Bilanzbuchhalter qualification

• Competitive Compensation: Competitive compensation package with stock options for full-time employees.
• Work-Life Balance: Regular team events, hybrid work setup, 2 months/year remote work (Worcation), unlimited vacation days, and a corporate pension plan.
• Personal Development: Personal budget for training, in-house trainings, and growth opportunities in a fast‑paced environment.
• Mobility: Monthly budget for mobility or other expenses, and a subsidized Dance Mobility Subscription for E‑Bike/E‑Moped.
• Well-Being: Discounted Urban Sports Club membership and Wellhub for a variety of well-being offerings.
