Founded in 2017, refurbed is Europe’s fastest-growing marketplace for refurbished products, active in 12 European countries and having surpassed €2Bn in GMV — all while being profitable. With beautiful headquarters in Vienna, we operate as a remote-first company, and our 250+ employees enjoy up to two months of workation per year. We’ve also been recognised as a Top DACH Employer by Kununu for three consecutive years.
Our mission is to make sustainable consumption the easy choice by enabling customers to buy products up to 40% cheaper while significantly reducing CO₂ emissions.

To enable this high-performance every team member enjoys full autonomy over their location (we’re remote-first).
Are you interested in working at the intersection of Accounting, Finance Operations, and Data Automation? Do you enjoy working with large datasets, understanding financial processes, reconciling complex transaction flows, and improving recurring tasks through automation?
For our Finance team, we are looking for a Junior Finance Operations Manager (m/f/x) who brings a solid accounting foundation, strong data affinity, and the motivation to build scalable finance processes in a fast-growing company. This is a great opportunity for someone with first experience in accounting, audit, or finance operations who wants to move beyond classic accounting tasks and grow into a more technical Finance Operations role.
WHO YOU ARE:
You hold a degree in Accounting, Finance, or a closely related field.
You bring around 2–3 years of professional experience in accounting, audit, finance operations, or a similar finance-related role.
You have a strong affinity for large datasets, reconciliations, payment flows, and structured financial data.
You enjoy turning complex data into clear insights, identifying discrepancies, and building scalable solutions instead of relying on manual workarounds.
You have strong Excel skills and experience with Looker or similar BI/reporting tools.
You have experience with, or a strong motivation to develop further in, Python or similar automation approaches.
You are excited about using automation, AI, and digital tools to make finance processes faster, smarter, and more reliable.
You have a strong eye for detail, work accurately, and care about data quality and consistency.
You are analytical, hands-on, and able to solve problems in a practical way.
You enjoy communicating with internal teams and external sellers, especially when helping them understand finance-related data and reports.
You are fluent in English; German is a plus.
Location & eligibility: This role is open to candidates based in Europe (including UK) only with a valid right to work.
Responsibilities
- Reconcile and improve Finance Operations processes around payment flows, PSP settlements, seller payouts, seller reporting, and transform them into accounting-ready transaction data.
- Further develop finance reporting based on payment and transaction data — both for internal accounting purposes and to give sellers better transparency over their payouts and financial data.
- Analyse discrepancies between PSP data, platform order data, seller reports, and accounting records, identify root causes, and help improve the underlying processes.
- Automate recurring finance tasks and improve manual workflows using Excel, Looker, Python, AI-supported workflows, or similar tools.
- Work together with internal teams such as Product, Seller Relations and Accounting, to translate new products and business requirements into scalable finance processes.
- Support sellers directly with finance-related questions around payouts, reports, transaction data, and reconciliations.
- Document processes and gradually take on more ownership as you grow into the role.
- ADDITIONAL FACTORS WE APPRECIATE:
- Experience in e-commerce, online platforms, payment service providers, or consumer goods.
- Experience with seller reporting, payment service providers, reconciliations, transaction-based business models, or high-volume financial data.
- Interest in building your career in a modern Finance Operations role that combines accounting knowledge, data automation, and business understanding.
- WHY YOU WILL ENJOY WORKING WITH US:
- Our Culture and Values:
- Decisions should be made based on facts and not by hierarchy levels? We sure think so!

- No matter who you love, where you’re from, who you pray to, whether you pee sitting down or standing up – we are a bunch of talented people who enjoy spending our time making a difference!
- Personal & Professional Development:
- You'll have access to a dedicated learning budget within your department to support your growth, whether it's courses, conferences, or other learning opportunities that matter to you.
- We partner with Likeminded, offering you private sessions with experts for your personal growth and mental health.
- We frequently host internal workshops, allowing our teams to further develop their skills in different areas and enhancing collaboration across departments.
- Flexibility:
- We care about a healthy work/life balance. We not only function and support a fully remote setting but also offer the possibility to work from our beautiful office in the vibrant heart of Vienna – we love dogs, so feel free to bring your furry little buddy too 😊
- We trust you to do the best job, so we don't care so much when you do it – you are able to self-organize.
- You will also be invited to take part in our office weeks, happening three times a year, where you will have the chance to work side by side with your colleagues and enjoy the team-building events and on-site workshops
