About KULT FARM

KULT FARM makes a true and natural alternative to meat from mycelium solid state fermentation. As a venture‑backed business, we are pioneering this approach.

Mission

Our mission is to foster the world’s transition to a sustainable food system—without asking consumers to compromise on taste, texture, or price.

Our planet cannot sustain our current food system; therefore, we believe in producing exceptional alternative products to remove the current strain on our environment and ensure food security for our future ever‑growing population.

We are looking for you to lead various commercial, financial and operational topics that drive forward the growth of the company.

This is your opportunity to have an impact on our planet and experience a startup in its earliest days.

Tasks

Finance

• Develop business cases, e.g., for a financing structure for the (joint) construction of a factory.
• Be responsible for applications to new subsidies and manage existing subsidies in the mid six‑figure to seven‑figure range, including the coordination of subsidy consultants.
• Be responsible for keeping budget planning and our financial model up to date.
• Act as the interface to our tax advisors and take responsibility for intercompany billing.
• Support investor reporting and fundraising.
• Support financial planning, forecasting, and budget control across teams.
• To do this, you will create business plans, excel spreadsheets, presentations, and written reports.

Operations

• Establish, be responsible for and optimize logistics from production to the customer.
• Consolidate data from orders, production, and finance and translate it into an ERP system in the medium term.
• Manage purchasing processes for raw materials.
• Create dashboards for KPIs, company targets, and statuses.

General

Translate strategic ideas into operational plans and support successful execution across topics.

Support leadership routines and company‑wide updates.

Personality

You move seamlessly between strategic topics and deep operational detail.

You turn ideas into business cases and bring clarity to complexity.

You balance analytical rigor with strong execution—you see what needs to be done and move quickly.

You act and work independently and responsibly.

Requirements

• At least a Bachelor’s degree in business, economics, or related field.
• 1–3 years of previous work experience, preferably in a high‑performance environment such as consulting, VC‑backed startup finances, or operator roles, transaction services.
• Fluency in German and English.

Benefits

• Responsibility from Day 1.
• You will work cross‑disciplinary in a multicultural team, and directly with the founders to help you learn and grow.
• A high‑impact, ambitious startup environment with the ability to learn and grow alongside the company.
• The opportunity to work on groundbreaking technology and make a true impact on the environment and our food system.
• A fun, flexible, and rewarding environment where you can thrive as a person.
