What You Will Be Responsible For

1. Venture-Level Financial Ownership

You will act as the finance partner for multiple ventures (hospitality, workspaces, deals, cafés, etc.).

This includes:

• Building and maintaining P&Ls, forecasts, and scenarios
• Diagnosing financial performance and calling out red flags early
• Translating numbers into clear, actionable insights for Managing Directors

You are expected to think, not just execute.

2. Reality-Based Financials (Actuals vs Forecast)

Many ventures come with optimistic forecasts or incomplete reporting.

You will:

• Validate provided P&Ls against bank statements and real cash movements
• Build adjusted P&Ls that reflect financial reality
• Explain variances clearly (what’s wrong, why, and what to do about it)

“Hope-based forecasting” is not acceptable here.

3. Forecasting & Scenario Modeling

You will build driver-based forecasts, not top-down guesses.

Examples:

• Volume × price × commission logic (Deals, Hospitality)
• Unit economics (cafés, experiences, workspaces)
• Cost structure stress-testing (payroll, rent, tech, marketing)

You will typically deliver:

• Base case
• Conservative case
• Upside case

Each with explicit assumptions.

4. Intercompany & Holding Support

YOUNG ventures receive funding and support from the holding.

You will help track:

• Loans (principal, interest, balances)
• Internal fees
• Payments due vs paid
• Compliance with agreed financial terms

This work feeds management decisions, not just accounting.

5. Working in an MVP, Fast-Moving Environment

Perfection is not the goal. Speed + transparency is.

You are expected to:

• Share early drafts (30–80%) with clear notes on what’s missing
• Communicate blockers immediately
• Improve iteratively instead of waiting for “perfect data”

Silence is worse than imperfect work.

How Success Is Measured

You are successful if:

• Managing Directors can make decisions faster because of your work
• Financial reality is visible early (not months later)
• Risks are identified before they become crises
• Holding leadership trusts the numbers coming from ventures
• You proactively propose improvements, not just report problems

Skills & Experience Required

Must-Have

• Strong Excel / Google Sheets (P&L modeling, reconciliation, scenarios)
• Solid understanding of:
  • P&L structure
  • Cash flow vs accrual logic
  • Unit economics
• Experience in:
  • Forecasting & budgeting
  • Financial analysis for decision-making
• Ability to work with imperfect, messy data
• Clear written and verbal communication (English required)

Strongly Preferred

• Experience in startups, scale-ups, or venture environments
• Hospitality, marketplaces, or multi-entity businesses exposure
• Experience reconciling P&L vs bank statements
• Comfort working asynchronously across time zones
• Proactive, ownership-driven mindset

Mindset & Behaviors (Non-Negotiable at YOUNG)

• Ownership over titles: you take responsibility, even when it’s uncomfortable
• Fast over perfect: you deliver early and improve
• Fearless but respectful: you challenge assumptions with data
• No excuses: if something is blocked, you raise it
• Curious & entrepreneurial: you care about the business, not just the numbers

If you need constant instructions, this role is not a fit.

What This Role Is NOT

• Not pure accounting or bookkeeping
• Not passive reporting
• Not a narrow “junior analyst” role
• Not a role where everything is clearly defined upfront

Growth Path

The role grows with you.

As you gain context and trust, you may:

• Take ownership of entire venture portfolios
• Lead financial strategy for new acquisitions
• Help define financial standards for the ecosystem
• Move into senior finance or venture leadership roles

At YOUNG, growth is claimed, not assigned.
