Since 2016 we have partnered with over 150 European founders in their earliest days including those behind category-defining companies such as Choco GetYourGuide Wandelbots Softr Harmattan Again Synthflow and Mirelo.
For us there is no too bold or too early. Just founders venturing into the unknown.

As our Finance Manager youll run the day-to-day of Atlantics fund finance: across portfolio monitoring cash flow and invoicing fund accounting and reporting compliance and special projects. Youll report directly to our Head of Finance and work closely with our Partners our fund administrator and our tax advisor.
Beyond the day-to-day youll have a clear mandate to automate. The goal is to cut manual work in half and let portfolio insights surface on their own. If building the finance function of a modern VC sounds better than maintaining one read on.

Portfolio reporting is an end-to-end system. One trusted source the whole team relies on
