Head of Finance & Controlling (m/f/d)

Intro

Making healthy eating effortless — with plant-based, chef-crafted meals that deliver maximum nutrition, flavour, and convenience. At Every, we help people reach their health goals while protecting the planet. Our vision goes beyond quick fixes — it's about sustainable wellbeing.

We're looking for a Head of Finance & Controlling (m/f/d) — a senior, strategic hire who takes full ownership of Every's financial numbers and gives leadership and the founders the clarity they need to make confident decisions as we scale.

This is a build role. You'll set the strategy and standards for the function while staying hands-on in the first months, bringing structure to processes that are still manual and settling how our core metrics are defined.

You'll build on a solid accounting team that is already in place, expand the function into FP&A and controlling, and take the strategic decisions on Every's finance infrastructure.

Your responsibilities

• The definition layer, a single source of truth — establish one place where every commercial and financial metric is defined, so the whole company works from the same figures

• Management reporting, accounting & controlling — own monthly management reporting end-to-end, from production and quality control through to the accompanying narrative, along with the controlling built on top of it

• Planning, forecasting & liquidity — lead the annual plan and rolling forecast and the FP&A work behind them, together with the cash and liquidity model and working-capital management. You'll inherit and develop our existing cohort-based financial model.

• Finance operations, risk & compliance — oversee payment operations and the costs that feed into CM2, fraud and chargeback management, payroll, EU VAT and tax, and the legal and compliance interface.

• Strategic modelling on brief — take an open-ended question from leadership — for example, modelling the TAM, CM2 and cannibalisation of a potential new SKU line — and produce a well-reasoned, defensible answer independently.

• Finance infrastructure & tooling — select and roll out FP&A tooling, build the DATEV→BigQuery pipeline and liquidity tooling, and automate recurring close and reporting work.

• BI & analytics. You own metric definitions and the reporting layer and are confident enough with SQL to generate dashboards and interrogate the data without waiting on others.
  Not in scope: data engineering, platform and pipelines (owned by Tech centrally)

• Cross-functional partnership — work as a peer with Growth, Ops, Digital Product and Customer Care to support and drive change across the business.

What you bring

• Dual strength. 8+ years across finance and BI/analytics with exp in e-commerce especially with supply-chain

• Finance leadership. You've owned close review, management reporting and planning in organisations of 50–200+ people, and you know subscription economics — cohort retention, CAC/CLV and contribution-margin ladders

• BI & analytics. You own metric definitions and the reporting layer, are fluent in a modern BI stack, and can get into the data yourself when you need to.

• Stakeholder credibility. You've settled a contested metric definition across functions, and you'll tell senior stakeholders when a number is wrong.

• Modeling. Excellent financial modeling and data analytics skills

• Pragmatism. You bring structure where there is none and prioritise well under pressure

• Languages. Able to work in German and English.

• Nice to have: D2C, subscription, food or FMCG · Big 4 audit or Transaction Services · founder-led company at 50–150 FTE · Experience implementing ERP systems

What we offer

• A high level of ownership in your role from day one

• A hybrid working model with a beautiful office in Kreuzberg

• Free lunches at the office

• 30% employee discount on Every products

• Subsidised Deutschlandticket and Urban Sports Club membership

• 30 days of annual leave
