Finance Analyst (Reporting & Business Impact)

Knihobot is a recommerce platform through which more than 10 million books have already passed. Every week, we send around 120,000 books to new homes, and the company continues to grow rapidly – in volume, complexity, and expectations around decision-making.

To keep this growth sustainable, we need clear, accurate, and meaningful financial data. Not just spreadsheets, but numbers people can actually rely on. That’s why we’re looking for a Finance Analyst to strengthen our finance team and help us move reporting, controlling, and financial data work to the next level.

Why this role exists

As we grow, the amount of financial data, reports, and manual processes grows with us. Many things work today, but not yet as systematically or automatically as we want them to.

This role exists to strengthen the finance team with analytical and automation capacity – to help turn financial data into clear, reliable inputs for decision-making, and to gradually reduce repetitive manual work.

You’ll work closely with the Finance Manager, finance team, COO, and data team, helping improve how financial information flows through the company. You will have business impact through data quality, simplification, and automation.

What you’ll do (and how the role will evolve)

Phase 1: Reporting & understanding (0–3 months)

• You’ll join the existing weekly and monthly reporting rhythm,
• work hands-on with financial data, P&L, and company-wide metrics,
• validate data accuracy in close cooperation with the data team,
• build a deep understanding of how numbers are created, flow through systems, and reflect the business.

The goal is to gain a solid grasp of the company’s financial reality.

Phase 2: Simplification & automation (3–9 months)

• You’ll start proposing improvements to reporting and data flows,
• identify manual or repetitive steps that don’t scale well,
• collaborate on automation initiatives with the data and tech teams,
• improve clarity and usability of outputs for other teams.

You will build better ways to work with our numbers.

Phase 3: Finance/business controlling & impact (9–18 months)

You’ll become more involved in finance and business controlling and interpretation of financial data,

• prepare analytical inputs for management decision-making,
• parts of your work may naturally overlap with business analytics (e.g. efficiency, trends, ROI).

You’ll become a trusted analytical partner to our leadership, creating impact through data.

Who we’re looking for

• You have a background in finance, economics or math and understand how numbers connect to real business decisions.
• You like working with financial data, P&L, reporting, and metrics, prior experience is a plus, but passion for numbers and business is more important than hard skill, which can be quickly learnt
• You can work with analytical tools (Excel / Google Sheets, BI tools); SQL or deeper data skills are a plus, not a must.
• You think systemically and enjoy improving how things work, not just maintaining the status quo.
• You’re comfortable starting with detail and gradually taking on more impact as you build context.
• You are able to communicate fluently in Czech, as most day-to-day collaboration happens in Czech.

We’re looking for an ambitious, curious mindset – someone who wants to understand how the business really works and isn’t afraid to question existing setups when they no longer make sense.

What we offer

• Competitive compensation between 57,000 and 95,000 CZK, depending on your experience.
• On-site collaboration in Prague (Kolbenova).
• The opportunity to work on financial data and systems that directly influence how the company operates and grows.
• A role that can grow in impact and scope as the company scales and your understanding deepens.
• 20% discount on books, VIP tariff for book sales, parking near our offices at Kolbenova metro station, and a personal development budget.
