About the role


We are looking for a Finance Intern to join our Finance team and support the day-to-day running of the accounts payable cycle. Beyond A/P, you will help us review and automate finance processes and get hands-on exposure to other areas of the department, including Financial Controlling where needed.


It is a practical, learning-focused role: you will own real tasks from day one, work closely with experienced finance professionals, and see how a finance function operates end to end.



Key responsibilities


Accounts payable cycle

  • Receive, check and register supplier invoices in the ERP, ensuring correct coding (accounts, cost centres, VAT, departments)
  • Coordinate invoice approvals with budget owners across the business
  • Prepare payment proposals and support weekly payment runs
  • Maintain supplier master data and support new vendor onboarding
  • Reconcile supplier statements and answer supplier queries
  • Support A/P tasks during month-end close (accruals, open-items review, aging reports)


Payments and bank reconciliations

  • Prepare and upload payment batches in online banking, and check them against approved invoices before release
  • Record payments in the ERP and apply them to the correct supplier invoices
  • Perform regular bank reconciliations, matching bank movements to ERP entries
  • Investigate and resolve unreconciled items, bank fees and unidentified transactions
  • Support daily cash position updates and cash flow reporting


Process review and automation

  • Map current finance processes and identify manual, repetitive or error-prone steps
  • Propose and help implement improvements and automations (ERP workflows, Excel/Google Sheets models, scripts or AI tools)
  • Help document processes and keep procedures and checklists up to date
  • Track the impact of changes (time saved, fewer errors, faster close)


Shadowing other areas of finance

  • Shadow the Financial Controlling team on month-end close, reporting, budgeting and forecasting
  • Gain exposure to cash management, treasury and cash flow reporting
  • Support analyses and reports where useful, building a broad view of how the finance function works


Other ad-hoc tasks

  • Support audits and data requests from internal and external stakeholders
  • Help with ad-hoc analyses, reconciliations and projects as business needs arise


What we're looking for


Requirements

  • Currently studying, or recently graduated in, Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, Economics or a related field
  • Basic understanding of accounting principles (double entry, invoices, VAT)
  • Good Excel or Google Sheets skills (formulas, pivot tables, lookups)
  • Fluent English; Spanish is a plus
  • Detail-oriented, organised and comfortable handling deadlines
  • Curious, proactive and keen to improve how things are done


Nice to have

  • Experience with an ERP system (preferably NetSuite)
  • Interest in automation and data tools (mainly AI tools)
  • Previous internship or experience in a finance or accounting team


What you'll gain


  • Hands-on experience across the full A/P cycle in a real finance team
  • Exposure to Financial Controlling, reporting and cash management
  • The chance to design and ship process improvements with visible impact
  • Mentoring from experienced finance professionals


** Applications must be submitted in English to be considered
