Head - Finance - Manufacturing/Retail/D2C - CA

Roles & Responsibilities:

- Financial Strategy & Planning - Ensuring we don't burn through cash like a startup on Cafefeine.

- Budgeting & Financial Management - Making budgets that people actually stick to (or at least pretend to).

- Accounting & Compliance - Keeping us in the good books of tax authorities (nobody likes a surprise audit).

- Financial Reporting & Analysis - Presenting numbers in a way that even non finance people understand.

- Team Leadership & Development - Leading a team that doesn't break into a cold sweat at the word "audit."

- Risk Management - Spotting financial landmines before we step on them.

- Investor Relations & Fundraising - Talking to banks and investors without making them nervous.

- ERP & Financial Systems - Making sure our financial systems aren't stuck in the Windows 98 era.

What We're Looking For:

- 8+ years of experience (at least 3-5 years leading the charge).

- Chartered Accountancy (CA) qualification is mandatory.

- Experience in manufacturing/retail/D2C is a plus-because finance is different when actual products are involved.

- Deep knowledge of financial regulations, tax laws, and accounting (because we don't want to learn the hard way).

- Proficiency in Tally, Excel, and ERP systems-if your idea of fun is building a financial model, we like you already.

- A problem-solver who can balance growth, risk, and making sure payday never fails

Why You'll Love This Role:

- You get to be the one who actually controls the money (power move).

- A seat at the leadership table-your decisions will shape the future, not just the balance sheet.

- A growing brand that actually listens to its finance team (most of the time).

- A chance to build financial strategies from scratch instead of just inheriting someone else's mess.

- You'll literally be surrounded by mattresses, which is great if you ever need to lie down after a tough quarter.
