WHO WERE LOOKING FOR

We are not hiring for a title we are hiring for ownership. This role needs someone who can both operate and build.

Education: CA / MBA Finance / B. Com (strong academic foundation preferred)

Experience: 1214 years across finance and accounting roles

Strong hands-on experience in:

Accounts Receivable & Collections (critical)

Accounts Payable & Vendor Management (critical)

Financial Reporting & Closures

GST, TDS, and compliance

Industry preference: Logistics, supply chain, freight forwarding, or service-based businesses

Proven experience in managing teams and scaling finance operations

What matters more than experience:

Can you bring control to chaos? Can you build systems where none exist? Can you partner with business teams without losing financial discipline?
