Commercial Finance Intern/Working Student

Helsing is a defence AI company. Our mission is to protect our democracies. We aim to achieve technological leadership, so that open societies can continue to make sovereign decisions and control their ethical standards. 

As democracies, we believe we have a special responsibility to be thoughtful about the development and deployment of powerful technologies like AI. We take this responsibility seriously. 

We are an ambitious and committed team of engineers, AI specialists and customer-facing programme managers. We are looking for mission-driven people to join our European teams – and apply their skills to solve the most complex and impactful problems. We embrace an open and transparent culture that welcomes healthy debates on the use of technology in defence, its benefits, and its ethical implications. 

As an Intern in Commercial Finance, you will sit at the intersection of Finance, Procurement, and Engineering – a position that carries real analytical weight. You will work directly with cost data that shapes sourcing strategy and profitability decisions, building and refining the cost models that underpin some of Helsing's most consequential commercial choices.

This is not a passive support role. You will contribute to the development of Helsing's product cost reporting capability, conduct bottom-up "Should Cost" analyses, and help identify where cost efficiency can be unlocked across the supply chain and production processes. Your work will provide the fact-based foundation that the purchasing team relies on in supplier negotiations, and your opportunity and risk tracking will feed directly into financial planning. You will also support the documentation of Finance-related SAP processes, helping the wider team operate with greater clarity and consistency.
