Financial Controller (m/w/d)

At Soho House we believe that our Houses are only as good as the people who work in them.

Das SOHO HOUSE BERLIN ist ein privater Members' Club und Hotel in einem denkmalgeschützten Gebäude im Herzen der Hauptstadt. 1995 von Nick Jones in London gegründet, ist das Haus seither ein Ort zum Zusammenkommen, Arbeiten, Essen und Trinken. Anders als andere Members' Clubs richtet sich das Soho House gezielt an Mitglieder, die alle eines verbindet – eine kreative Seele. Neben Restaurants, einem Fitnessstudio, Rooftop Pool, hauseigenem Kino und großzügigem Spabereich, bietet das Haus 65 Zimmer in unterschiedlichen Größen, 20 Apartments und vier Lofts. Neben Berlin und Großbritannien finden sich weitere Häuser in den USA, Toronto, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Istanbul und Mumbai.

Thank you for showing your interest in Soho House & Co. – we know there’s a lot of choice out there – and we look forward to working with you.
