Position Overview & Specifications
Across Europe, fleets are under enormous pressure. Fuel costs are rising. Regulatory requirements are tightening. The shift to low-emission vehicles is accelerating. And yet around 70% of European businesses still manage their fleets manually, with spreadsheets, disconnected tools, and processes that were never built for this moment.
Shiftmove exists to make this simple. We are a profitable B2B SaaS company and the fastest-growing fleet management platform in Europe, born from the merger of Avrios and Vimcar, and now serving tens of thousands of corporate customers across Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland, Poland, and beyond. Most recently, we acquired Optimum and Ocean in France, expanding our footprint and doubling down on one of Europe's largest fleet markets.
Our AI-powered platform connects real-time vehicle data with intelligent software so that businesses can procure smarter, control costs, stay compliant, and lead the transition to cleaner mobility, all from one place.
About the Role
Joining our FP&A team as a Working Student, you won't just be doing basic data entry, youβll have real ownership from day one.
Youβll play a key role in strengthening our monthly financial reporting and budgeting processes across our PE-backed, multi-entity SaaS group. By consolidating costs and building clear, vendor-level insights, you will directly enable our budget owners to make smarter, faster decisions.
What Youβll Do

- Optimize Financial Models: Maintain and refine Excel models tracking actual spend against budget and forecast.
- Empower Budget Owners: Deliver clearer, more timely spend visibility to department heads to help optimize operational budgets.
- Automate & Improve: Leverage advanced Excel features, SQL, and PowerBI to automate recurring data flows, account reconciliations, and data validation.
- Innovate & Own: Proactively contribute ideas to streamline our processes, taking real ownership of your workstreams.
What You Bring
- Academic Background: Currently enrolled in a Bachelorβs or Masterβs program in Finance, Accounting, Business, Economics, or a related quantitative field.
- Spreadsheet & Data Skills: Advanced Excel proficiency (XLOOKUP, SUMIFS, Pivot Tables, Power Query). Exposure to SQL, Snowflake, or PowerBI is a strong plus.
- Financial Basics: Solid understanding of financial accounting fundamentals (P&L structure, cost categorization, accruals logic).
- Detail & Precision: High attention to detail and a commitment to data accuracy across repetitive workflows.
- Language & Availability: Fluent in English (written and spoken). Based in Berlin and available to work 20 hours/week for at least 12 months. Exposure to SaaS or PE environments is a bonus
Benefits
- Practical Ownership: Take responsibility for your own projects and gain valuable experience in FP&A at a fast-growing B2B SaaS company.
- Flexible Working: Flexible working hours that can be easily combined with your studies.
- Professional Development: An annual training budget of β¬750 to support your personal and professional growth.
- Wellbeing: Access to nilo.health as well as an additional Mental Health Day per year.
- Perks & Mobility: Subsidy for the Deutschlandticket or an Urban Sports Club membership.
- Team Culture: Regular team and company events, plus the opportunity to work with colleagues from over 40 nations.
We mean it:
With over 40 nationalities, we are united by our dedication and a shared belief in our purpose: to simplify mobility operations for businesses. Different backgrounds, career paths, and perspectives are what make the work better.
