Basic understanding of finance and accounting from your studies, with an interest in commodities trading and eagerness to learn Frey’s business model.
Strong analytical and numerical skills, structured and detail-oriented, with solid Excel skills.

A genuine curiosity for data, technology, and automation - experience in Power BI, SQL, Microsoft Business Central, or AI/automation tools is considered a plus.
You are proactive and curious, comfortable working with guidance initially while gradually taking ownership of your own tasks and projects. You should be available 10–20 hours per week and ready to start as soon as possible. This is a great opportunity to build hands-on finance experience in a fast-paced, international commodity trading scale-up, while developing skills at the intersection of finance, data, and technology
