Job description

As an Implementation Manager, you’ll own customer implementations from contract signature through to go-live for the DACH region.

Working directly with CFOs, Finance Directors and Controllers, you’ll design solutions, lead implementations and ensure every customer is set up for success. No two projects are the same. You’ll solve complex finance challenges, work closely with Product and Engineering, and have real influence over both the customer experience and the evolution of our platform.

What you’ll do

  • Lead multiple implementations from kickoff to go-live.
  • Partner with senior finance leaders throughout delivery.
  • Configure Light around each customer’s finance processes.
  • Manage data migration, timelines and project delivery.
  • Work closely with Product, Engineering and Customer Success.
  • Help shape how we deliver implementations as we continue to scale.

Requirements

You’ll likely have experience implementing ERP or finance software within consulting or SaaS. We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has delivered complex software implementations end-to-end.
  • Proficient in German
  • Builds credibility with senior finance stakeholders.
  • Enjoys solving challenging problems and taking ownership.
  • Thrives in a fast-moving startup environment.
  • Uses AI to work smarter and deliver exceptional results.

Experience with platforms like NetSuite, Sage Intacct or Workday Financials is a bonus, but not essential.

Benefits & conditions

You’ll join an ambitious, high-performing team that’s building category-defining software. In return, you’ll get:

  • Competitive salary and potential stock options.
  • Generous annual leave.
  • ️Regular international off-sites.
  • Huge opportunities to grow as we scale.

If you’re excited by ownership, solving complex customer challenges and helping redefine finance software, we’d love to hear from you.

About the company

At Light, we’re replacing outdated ERP systems with an AI-powered finance platform built for modern, global businesses. Our customers automate accounting, reporting, AP, AR and bookkeeping in one intelligent platform-helping finance teams move faster and work smarter. Backed by world-class investors, we’re growing quickly and already power finance operations for companies like Lovable, Legora and Keyshot. This is an opportunity to join early and help build the future of finance.
