We are proud to partner with Europe’s leading Fintechs and financial institutions such as DKB, Revolut, N26 and Raisin. Founded in 2017 by Martin Kassing, Upvest now brings together over 270 talented professionals from more than 70 nationalities. Upvest is backed by €280M in total funding from world-class investors, including BlackRock, Tencent, Sapphire Ventures, and Bessemer Venture Partners, Earlybird, Notion Capital, and Motive.

We are scaling fast and investing heavily in our product, our clients and our international footprint. We are looking for a Strategy Intern to join our Strategy team and help us shape what comes next.

About the role:

As Strategy Intern, you will join our Strategy team, working directly with our Head of Strategy, Tine von Villiez, and our wider leadership team, including our CEO and Founder, Martin Kassing. You will support Upvest's most important strategic work, from high-stakes leadership and board meetings to initiatives such as market expansion and new products. You will own your own work packages, working independently and cross-functionally, with direct exposure to senior leadership. This is a high-impact, highly visible role and a great way to learn how a fast-growing fintech is run, with a deep look into our product, clients, operations and the banking ecosystem.

What you’ll do:

• Support high-stakes internal projects: Help the team prepare and run all-hands, leadership offsites and presentations, and board meetings

• Support strategic initiatives: Contribute to high-impact strategic initiatives, such as market expansion or new products, from research and analysis to preparing recommendations and materials to the actual execution and project management

• Support the OKR process: Help run the company OKRs, link them to core business KPIs and support cross-team prioritisation

• Own your work packages: Take ownership of your own work packages, working independently and cross-functionally to deliver them

• Become an AI champion: Learn and adapt to new AI tools, and help upskill the organisation by sharing what works

What you bring:

• Experience: You have already completed 1-2 internships in highly dynamic environments, ideally in consulting or at other fintechs or high-growth scale-ups

• Business acumen: You have high business acumen and quickly understand how a business works and what drives it. You break down complex problems into actionable insights and measurable outcomes, and care about the details to ensure flawless execution

• Curiosity and drive: You are curious, highly motivated and eager to learn across the board. You are proactive and happy to support on different projects. You are passionate about fintech and the mission of empowering more people to invest

• AI-native: You use AI tools proactively in your day-to-day work (synthesis, research, reporting) and are always looking for smarter, faster ways of working

• Communication and stakeholder management: You communicate clearly and confidently and enjoy working with colleagues at all levels, including senior leadership

• Team player: You are open, collaborative and a cultural ambassador who lives our values

• Location and availability: You are based in Berlin and available for a minimum of 4 months

How we Upvest in you:

• Impact-driven work: We're working on solving a hard problem: fixing the European investment infrastructure so that more people are able to invest. You have the opportunity to contribute to this change.

• Learning and development: We invest in your growth, offering access to personal coaching and mental health support through our Nilo platform, alongside plenty of opportunities to develop in your role. Working in the complex yet fascinating world of investments, with an API product built on a state-of-the-art tech stack and alongside leading fintechs and financial institutions, offers an incredibly rewarding learning experience.

• An exceptional team: Upvengers are one of a kind when it comes to combining impactful work with a relaxed and fun atmosphere. We have strong practices around feedback, team health and social events, resulting in a constantly high eNPS.

• Culture: We live a culture of empowerment, trust (that we hire the best people and get out of their way) and openness (there's a greater advantage in sharing information than keeping it to ourselves).

• Flexibility: While we're not quite fully remote, we are committed to being a flexible employer, as we understand you don't have to be in the office to do your best work. This role is based in Berlin.

Our Values:

• Make it easy for others. We simplify the complex and act with the best intentions.
