– Treasury, working capital, cash flow forecasting and banking relationships

– FP&A: budgets, rolling forecasts, scenario models and monthly MIS

– Unit economics for new projects, AR and contract closures with business teams

– Fundraising support, investor reporting and due diligence

– SOPs, ERP adoption and AI-led automation across billing, reconciliation and revenue recognition

What you bring:

– CA (mandatory), ideally with high-growth startup experience

– Proven track record raising working capital and term debt from banks, end to end

– Strong Indian taxation, audit and financial modelling skills

– Extreme ownership and a preference for building over maintaining
