About the role

We are hiring Senior Manager- Finance to own end-to-end finance for our lending business, where we act as a Lending Service Provider (LSP) to RBI-regulated NBFC and bank partners.

• Support partner REs with information for their regulatory reporting.
• Work with legal, risk and compliance on outsourcing, fair practices code, grievance redressal, data protection (DPDP Act) and partner due diligence.

• Represent lending finance to the AVP- Finance/ CFO, business heads, statutory auditors, internal auditors.
• Coordinate with treasury and banking operations on funding, escrow and DLG instruments.

• Create a culture of ownership, control discipline and continuous automation.
