Strategic Finance Manager at Impossiblecloud

BUILD THE NEXT GENERATION OF THE INTERNET Impossible Cloud is a B2B cloud platform with a focus on becoming the #1 cloud platform in Europe and beyond. It was founded by serial entrepreneurs who have previously built a billion-euro tech company. Currently, our offering includes cloud object storage similar to AWS S3, and our market success is already being proven by highly promising growth based on our channel-based GTM strategy. While we build a comprehensive suite of cloud products, we are redefining the cloud sector by bridging the gap between decentralized infrastructure (DePIN) and mainstream B2B cloud use cases. Become part of something bigger: We’re committed to reinventing the internet and push technological innovation and business determination to the next level.  Find out more about us here. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join a category-defining tech startup backed by Tier 1 VCs, just ahead of our Series A funding round. We are seeking a highly analytical and commercially minded finance professional to join our high-impact Finance team and take ownership of how capital is deployed, protected, and scaled across the business.   This role goes far beyond traditional controlling. You will operate at the intersection of capital allocation, treasury strategy, and investor-grade financial reporting — ensuring every euro is invested efficiently to drive measurable growth. Working directly with leadership, you will design the financial infrastructure and decision frameworks that enable disciplined scaling, strong governance, and funding readiness as we build Europe’s leading cloud infrastructure provider. What you will do: • Design and enforce a company-wide capital allocation framework to evaluate departmental ROI, partnering with leads to stress-test investments and ensure capital drives measurable growth. • Manage a hybrid treasury across fiat and token portfolios, optimizing liquidity deployment, managing runway, and automating banking and payment infrastructure for maximum capital efficiency. • Elevate financial reporting to institutional standards by producing rigorous monthly packages that transparently track capital efficiency, cash flow, and runway to build investor confidence. • Implement scalable processes, controls, and automation (incl. AI tooling) to professionalize finance operations and prepare the company for rapid growth and future financing rounds. What you bring to the table: • 2+ years of experience in controlling, finance, investment banking, treasury, or related roles in fast-paced, high-growth environments (startup, consulting or tech exposure preferred). • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Business, Economics, or a related field. • Strong understanding of capital efficiency, liquidity management, and financial planning, with the ability to connect numbers to strategic outcomes. • Proven experience building structured reporting, forecasting, and financial models for senior stakeholders. • Fluent in German and English. • Advanced proficiency in Excel and/or Google Sheets; familiarity with automation, BI tools, or modern finance stacks is a plus. • Ownership-driven, hands-on mindset with the ability to work independently in ambiguous environments. What we offer: • Competitive salary coupled with direct engagement in your success through an enticing ESOP. • Ideal company stage with established initial revenue and a distinctive edge in the cloud industry leading to fast growth opportunities. • Collaboration with experienced, passionate, and supportive colleagues, leveraging cutting-edge technology in the cloud industry. • Fantastic office situated in a trendy location with access to complimentary healthy brain food and a subsidized premium gym membership. • Monthly collaborative meet-up weeks featuring team events.

We embrace individuals from all backgrounds who share the goal of building a future European cloud champion.  We place great importance on in-person collaboration and open communication, and we value working together regularly at our Hamburg headquarters.
