About lemon.markets
Our mission is providing better opportunities to invest in capital markets. By empowering FinTechs and Banks to offer investment products, we help create financial well-being for their customers. In pursuit of this goal we strive to open 100 million securities accounts within Europe in this decade.
lemon.markets builds infrastructure for financial services and technology companies powering the next generation of investment products. From enabling a FinTech to launch their first investment product, over allowing e.g. a Neobank to embed investing into their product to bringing investing into a completely new context. Our API-first infrastructure makes launching an investment product customer-centric and compliant. We abstract all complexity for our partners through a well documented API, a self-service customer operations portal and operating in a clear regulatory framework. Enabling partners to launch in weeks, not months.
We have experienced first hand that brokerage infrastructure is broken. Building an investment product used to be highly expensive, challenging and cumbersome. We ease this pain by shielding our partners & their customers from the underlying complexity - and with that we make investing more accessible to everyone. Because that’s exactly what we enjoy, going to places nobody else dares and solving hard problems. This not only creates tons of value when done right, but attracts the smartest minds - because outlier companies are built by exceptional (& diverse) people like you.

• Growing investing opportunities excites you. Our mission resonates with you, because you have either worked in the financial sector (i.e. Brokerage or Banking) or in the technology sector (i.e. FinTechs or API-first companies).
• You have a strong background in Accounting and/or controlling. You have gained extensive experience in either Accounting or Controlling at a bank, FinTech or have audit experience with a Big 4 company. This means you have owned projects with multiple stakeholders and feel at home with accounting according to German GAAP (HGB) and potentially RechKredV. Experience in group accounting and consolidation is a plus.
• You are willing to build up a function from scratch. You’re a hands-on player, willing to put in high-quality processes from the beginning, while being pragmatic with more complex solutions.
• Communication and collaboration come naturally to you. You are able to communicate well with diverse audiences, and are able to succinctly communicate requirements and technical topics as well as effectively communicate risks and opportunities you notice.
• You understand what working in a startup or a similar lean organisation is like. You can move quickly and focus on what’s truly important.
• You thrive on ownership: “This is not my job!” is not part of your vocabulary - you are intrinsically motivated to deliver value by taking initiative and challenging the status quo.
