Why is this job perfect for the Femstreet community?
Because it's a job board that targets an underrepresented group (women) in tech and in the game industry.

Klang is a Berlin-based game studio whose mission is to create deep and meaningful online experiences that bring people together.

At the heart of Klang is SEED, a large-scale virtual world that will provide immersive social experiences through gaming.

Caring, Harmony and Innovation are at the core of SEED as well as our core values as a company. We want to continue building a nurturing and collaborative environment for our employees with an evolving structure that adapts as we grow.

As part of our Finance Team, you will be the main point of contact to our internal and external financial stakeholders. In this role you will get exposure to all aspects of Finance work at a technology startup. You will get freedom to continuously improve and maintain our internal financial tools and processes as a well-oiled machine. You will actively participate in budget planning, FP&A work and controlling. You will be the right hand of our Head of Finance and provide them support with fundraising, due diligence, international expansion and corporate legal topics.
