About Longship Marketing

(This job is open to candidates across Europe, not just Germany!)

Longship Marketing is a remote-first agency helping brands grow through performance marketing and e-commerce operations. Our distributed team of 15+ professionals across Europe values flexibility, ownership, and getting things done.

You'll be supporting operations and finance across three interconnected businesses:

  • Longship Marketing GmbH (the company you'll be contracted to)

  • Longship Commerce GmbH - which owns our portfolio of e-commerce sites

  • Dx3 Services UG - which runs our 'Dx3 Labs AI' sister services business for AI automation

All three businesses intersect with Longship Marketing, but extend beyond a traditional marketing agency—you'll be working with a group of companies.

We're now hiring a part-time Operations & Finance Assistant (approx. 20 hours/week) to own our internal operations and finance processes. This is a role for someone detail-driven, experienced, and proactive—someone who brings established systems and processes, and who can work independently to improve how we operate financially.

🧾 What You'll Do

  • Own the end-to-end invoicing process: create client invoices, purchase orders, and track payments

  • Review, process, categorize, and file contractor and vendor invoices

  • Manage financial communications with German tax offices, accountants, and banks

  • Support the bookkeeper with documentation, transaction categorisation, and reconciliation

  • Maintain and improve systems for financial admin and documentation management

  • Research and implement tools or methods to streamline invoicing, payments, and finance operations

  • Handle insurance, tax, and social security administration tasks

  • Prepare financial documentation and internal reports for leadership

  • Lead process improvement projects to optimize finance and operations workflows

  • Take on strategic research and analysis projects related to finance operations

✅ Requirements (Necessary)

  • Fluent in German & English

  • Based in Europe, able to work remotely across EU business hours

  • Proven experience in finance operations, accounting support, or operations management

  • Brings established systems and processes—doesn't just complete tasks but improves them

  • Self-starter who works independently and takes full ownership of outcomes

  • Reliable, organised, and accurate with details—especially financial data

  • Comfortable using modern tools (Google Workspace, Asana, Slack)

  • Confident managing communications with German authorities, banks, and vendors

💡 Nice to Have

  • Experience in e-commerce operations or vendor management across multiple entities

  • Strong familiarity with German accounting, tax, or payroll processes

  • Active interest in automating tasks with tools like Make.com, n8n.io, or AI assistants

  • Knowledge of P&L tracking, budget management, or basic forecasting

  • Experience coordinating finance operations across multiple legal entities

  • Track record of implementing systems that reduce manual work

⚓ What We Offer

  • International, fully remote team

  • Flexible working hours

  • Asynchronous communication with meaningful calls

  • Space for initiative and innovation

  • Access to courses and training materials

  • Supportive and stable team culture

  • 28 holidays per year + national holidays

  • Cutting-edge tools and technologies
