Billing Manager

BUILD SCALABLE PROCESSES

• Be part of designing and rolling out a scalable invoicing architecture, from today's manual setup to a standardized and automated solution
• Automate recurring process steps
• Document everything: reproducible, hand-off-ready, audit-ready

STAKEHOLDER & CUSTOMER COMMUNICATION

• Direct customer communication on invoicing questions, in writing (German and English)
• Partner closely with Sales and Customer Success to secure upstream data quality (contracts, prices, delivery points)
• Partner closely with our Tech/Data team, where consumption data, time series, and energy accruals are your input
• Establish escalation paths and priority logic with Sales and CS, so edge cases don't block the standard process

DATA QUALITY & HANDOVER TO ACCOUNTING

• Ensure invoicing data flows cleanly into accounting, as the interface to our accounting team
• Contribute to month-end close: clean invoicing cut-off, documented open items, accruals-relevant data ready on time
• Audit-readiness from an invoicing perspective: process documentation, invoice-level traceability, controls

Who You Are

MUST-HAVES

• 3+ years in Billing, Order-to-Cash, Finance Operations, or similar operational Finance roles
• Scale-up experience, with at least one station at a fast-growing company. You've worked without a clean ERP, with ambiguous processes, in a team being built as it runs
• B2B billing with complex pricing models, not SaaS flat-rate. You've handled individual contracts, volume-based logic, or formula-driven pricing
• Proven high-output track record. You've personally delivered and you can point to a moment where you built or saved a critical process
• Systems thinker with a detail obsession. You see the pattern behind ticket or invoice corrections
• Excel/ Sheets power user. You build models others can't unpack, and you document them so they can
• Strong stakeholder management
• Ownership mindset. You take things on without asking whether it's "in your role"
• Business fluent in English and German (written); speaking is a big plus

NICE-TO-HAVES

• Energy or utility experience
• Hands-on experience with a Billing Tool rollout or ERP implementation
• SQL, Python basics, or hands-on experience with AI tools (Claude, Langdock, n8n)
