Every year millions of people are either filing their taxes in fear or giving up on their tax refund altogether. We're working on fixing that. Our intuitive app enables anyone, regardless of education or background, to file their taxes with newfound confidence.
Spread across Germany, Spain and the UK, the team at Taxfix Group with its brands Taxfix and Steuerbot, is a compassionate group of solution-finders. We speak our minds openly, and with over 400 professionals, including tax experts, developers, and IT security experts, we're rich in ideas and voices. The group has facilitated more than 3.5 billion euros in tax refunds for its customers since its founding in 2016.
At Taxfix, we have democratized tax filing for millions. Now, we are looking to build our next major growth engine.
We are looking for an entrepreneurial Venture Development Intern to join the Office of the COO. In this role, you will work directly with our Chief Operating Officer to validate, scope, and build a brand-new product proposition from the ground up.
This is not a typical internship where you sit on the sidelines. You will act as a Founder’s Associate for this new initiative, operating with high autonomy to turn a strategic vision into a concrete business case.
You will partner with the COO to treat this new project like an internal startup. Your mission is to de-risk the opportunity and prepare it for launch.
Strategic Validation: You will own the "Discovery" phase. This means analysing market dynamics, interviewing potential customers, and proving (or disproving) our hypotheses.
Business Architecture: You won't just look at the product; you will look at the business. You will model the unit economics, define the pricing strategy, and map out the operational requirements to scale.
Go-to-Market Strategy: Work with the COO to design the launch plan. How do we enter the market? What are the regulatory constraints? How do we leverage Taxfix’s existing brand?
Executive Reporting: You will help synthesize complex data into clear, decision-ready memos and pitch decks for the Taxfix Board and Leadership Team.
We are looking for intellect and rigor. If you are completing your Bachelor’s or Master’s at a business school, we strongly encourage combining this internship with your thesis.
Access: You will have direct access to C-level insights and proprietary data. Daily interaction and 1:1 mentorship from our COO. You will see how decisions are made at the executive level of a Unicorn.
Relevance: Your thesis won't gather dust; it will likely inform real strategic decisions at Taxfix. You aren't supporting a process; you are building a product. Additionally, you will gain access to the Taxfix leadership team and our alumni network of founders and investors.
You are a high achiever from a leading business school.
You want to be a founder one day. You are comfortable with "0-to-1" environments where there is no playbook yet.
You can take a vague problem statement from the COO and break it down into actionable workstreams.
You are fluent in Excel (modelling) and PowerPoint (storytelling). You can communicate confidently with senior leadership in German and English.
You are familiar with generative AI tools.
A chance to do meaningful, people-centric work with an international team of passionate professionals.
Holistic well-being with free mental health coaching sessions and yoga.
A monthly allowance to spend on an extensive range of services that you can use and roll over as flexibly as you like.
Employee stock options for all employees—because everyone deserves to benefit from the success they help to create.
30 annual vacation days and flexible working hours.
A generous learning budget to support your personal and professional development and guidance from our internal L&D experts.
Work from abroad for up to six weeks every year. Just align with your team, and then enjoy your trip.
Plenty of opportunities to socialise as a team. In addition to internal meetups, our international team hosts regular get-togethers—virtually and in person when possible.
Free tax declaration filing, of course, through the Taxfix app—and internal support for all personal tax-related questions.
Have a four-legged friend in your life? We’re happy to have dogs join us in the office.
