Intern Finance & Controlling (d/f/m) (Start June/July 2024)

at  LIQID Investments GmbH

WHAT YOU BRING

• Background: You are a matriculated student, at least having finished the first 2 years of your Bachelor program, ideally in a business degree program with a focus on finance, accounting and/or controlling.
• 
  Skills and qualifications: Your interest in financial topics is unstoppable and a #nicetohave is if you have already gained some first work experience, for example through first internships in finance, banking, or consulting. Your PowerPoint slides are impressive? Can you build pivot tables with ease? Excellent! You can and like to communicate fluently in English. Communicating in German is beneficial but not required. Above all, you excel at conveying complex financial concepts in simple terms to non-finance colleagues.
• 
  Mindset: Numbers do not scare you. On the contrary, you really flourish here and work carefully, structured and have great attention to detail. You are not afraid to proactively contribute your ideas, ask questions and work independently. As we deal on a day-to-day basis with highly confidential information, you show the highest level of integrity and have sound judgement on what information can be shared widely.
