Job description

About Flatpay

Flatpay is on a mission to power the financial ecosystem of small and medium-sized merchants, simply, transparently, and with a personal touch.

Flatpay is on a mission to power the financial ecosystem of small and medium-sized merchants, simply, transparently, and with a personal touch.

We've grown into Denmark's fastest unicorn company. In less than five years, we've grown to more than 2,500 colleagues across Denmark, Germany, Finland, the UK, the Netherlands, Italy and France.

We're ambitious, move fast, and like to challenge the status quo. We also believe work should be fun.

What You'll Do

The Group Strategy team works directly with the CEO, our country Managing Directors, and the broader Flatpay organization. We work on the questions that shape how Flatpay grows: Where we're winning, where we can improve, and what we should do next.

As a Student Assistant in the Group Strategy team, you'll be part of the work from your first week. You'll own parts of analyses, see how your work feeds into leadership decisions, and get close sparring from colleagues with consulting and strategy backgrounds.

Your Main Tasks Will Include

• Building analyses for a broad range of topics
• Preparing input for senior leadership
• Assessing performance across our current and new markets
• Researching markets, competitors, and new product opportunities
• Turning numbers into clear output and recommendations
• Supporting ad hoc requests from HQ and market leadership

Who You Are

• You're studying a bachelor's or master's degree in economics, business, finance, engineering or another quantitative field, and have at least 1.5 years of studies left
• You're strong with numbers, you can work with large datasets, and you check your own work before you hand it over
• You can break a broad question into its parts and explain your conclusion clearly in writing and verbally
• You take ownership and follow tasks through
• You communicate confidently in English (Danish is a plus)
• Experience with SQL and/or Python is a plus, but not a requirement

You don't need to know everything from day one. We only ask that you're curious and eager to learn and have fun while doing it!

What we offer

• Direct exposure to leadership and to the decisions behind one of Europe's fastest growing Fintechs
• A broad view of the business across sales, product, finance, and our local markets
• A steep learning curve with close sparring and regular feedback on your work
• 15-20 hours per week, flexible around exams and study peaks
• A fun office environment with breakfast, lunch, snacks, an in-office gym, and even a slush ice machine!

Why Flatpay

Joining Flatpay means stepping into a dynamic environment where innovation is encouraged, and teamwork is celebrated. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact, contributing to our mission of empowering merchants to succeed.

With us, you’ll experience an ambitious drive to constantly push boundaries and redefine what's possible. While we don’t take ourselves too seriously, we take our responsibility towards our people very seriously. We welcome driven, low-ego individuals who live our values and want to grow with us.
