We bring stories to life across various formats for everyone to discover. Anytime. Anywhere. Ready to start your first chapter, joining a group of passionate story lovers? We’re looking for a Business Controlling Intern to join the team in Stockholm! About the Role What if your first real finance role gave you both a rock-solid grounding in controlling and a chance to help define what it looks like next? At Storytel, you’ll get a close-up view of how the numbers behind a global streaming business come together. You’ll learn the fundamentals from people who know them inside out, and you’ll help take them further by using AI to make reporting and analysis faster, sharper and less manual. This is a paid part-time internship to run alongside your studies, starting in February 2027. No two weeks look the same, and you’ll get hands-on responsibility from the start. In a nutshell, here’s what you’ll do:

• Ask the numbers anything. Help build conversational reporting, where leaders ask questions in plain language and get the right numbers back, and test it with the senior leaders who use it.
• Deepen the monthly analysis. AI already drafts the commentary in our monthly report. Help develop the analysis so it explains the drivers behind the results more precisely.
• Build AI agents. Identify tasks in our reporting and controls that an agent could take over, then build, test and put them to work.
• Learn about forecasting. Take part in the monthly reporting and forecast cycles. We are using machine learning in our forecasts, and if you have the interest and skills, you can help develop it further.
• Make our data AI-ready. Build an agent that helps the teams code transactions to the right accounts and dimensions, so the data our AI relies on is right from the start.

About the team This is a great opportunity for you who want to gain insights about working in a publicly listed tech company. You'd join the Business Controlling team and report directly to the Head of Business Controlling. You’ll work side by side with our business controllers, who own the monthly report, the forecast and the analysis behind our biggest decisions, across streaming markets and publishing houses. You’ll also team up with our AI and data colleagues to turn ideas into tools the whole finance team uses. About You You don’t need a perfect CV or years of experience. We care more about how you think and how curious you are than what you’ve already done. We believe you’re:

• Curious, fast-learning and fascinated by how AI can change the way we work.
• Structured, detail-oriented and someone who takes pride in getting it right.
• Hands-on and a self-starter who likes to try new things and make them work.
• Down-to-earth and a good team player.
• A clear communicator in English, who can explain numbers in a simple way.
• Comfortable handling confidential, market-sensitive information.

Your profile:

• Currently enrolled as a student at a university or higher education institution (in business, finance, industrial engineering and management, computer science or other)
• Real skills with AI. AI is at the heart of this role, so you should be comfortable working with tools like Claude and have a genuine drive to push what they can do. Experience from your studies, projects or spare time is exactly what we’re looking for.
• Available around 40% (roughly two days a week) during spring 2027.
• Comfortable with Excel or Google Sheets.
• An interest in finance is important, but previous controlling experience is definitely not a must. We’ll teach you.

What we offer you

• A part-time job with flexibility to fit your studies.
• Unique mentorship from our Head of Business Controlling.
• Hands-on experience at the intersection of finance and AI.
• A seat at the table, with real numbers and real responsibility.
• Learning from skilled colleagues in an international, fast-moving environment.
