Responsibilities

Strategic finance and FP&A

• Partner with Growth, Supply and Product on pricing, commission structures and market entry decisions, with the financial case behind each one
• Run capital allocation: where we spend, what we stop, and what returns wehold each function to
• Run any potential M&A transactions

Fundraising and investor relations

• Run the fundraise round whenever comes end to end: model, narrative, data room, diligence, and support on term sheet negotiation
• Own the board pack, the quarterly investor update and the relationship with existing investors between rounds
• Build and maintain the debt and working capital options that suit the business and manage banking relationship

Controllership, tax and global structuring

• Own accounting, monthly close, statutory reporting and the internal control environment across all entities
• Manage a multi-entity, multi-currency structure: transfer pricing, cross-border flows, FEMA and RBI compliance, and international tax exposure across our operating markets
• Own direct and indirect tax compliance, assessments and litigation, in India and in overseas jurisdictions
• Run treasury: cash flow, FX exposure, payment rails across markets, and the controls around all of it
• Coordinate statutory and internal audits, and hold clean, timely closes as a standard rather than an achievement

Team and systems

• Lead a finance team which is already in place
• Whenever required hire and develop the finance team across FP&A, controllership and accounts

• CA with 10+ years of experience, including at least 4 years leading a finance team
• Experience in a high-growth environment
• Strong command of corporate finance and investor relations, with real exposure to fundraising and diligence

Good to have

• Experience taking a company through a Series B or later round
• Exposure to international entity setup, transfer pricing or overseas tax structuring
