About the role
We are looking for a hands-on Finance and Accounts Manager to own our day-to-day finance function end-to-end. This is not a purely supervisory role; you will be directly responsible for bookkeeping, compliance, and reporting, not just reviewing someone else's work. You will report directly to the founder and play a key role in keeping our financial operations accurate, compliant, and audit-ready as we scale.
The core responsibilities for the job include the following:
Accounting and Bookkeeping:
- Own day-to-day bookkeeping using Tally, including accounts payable and accounts receivable.
- Maintain accurate books of accounts and ensure timely closing every month.
- Manage vendor invoices, payments, and reconciliations.
Compliance and Statutory Filings:
- Handle GST filings, TDS deductions and returns, and other statutory compliance requirements.
- Ensure payroll-related statutory compliance, including PF and ESI as applicable.
- Support statutory audits and coordinate with external auditors.
Reporting and Financial Management:
- Prepare and maintain financial reports, including P& L, cash flow, and MIS reports for leadership.
- Support budgeting and financial planning processes.
- Track expenses and flag anomalies or cost-saving opportunities.
Payroll Management:
- Process monthly payroll accurately and on time.
- Handle employee queries related to payslips, PF, and tax deductions.
Requirements:
- 1 to 2 years post-qualification for CAs, or 4 to 5 years for non-CA finance generalists.
- CA freshers with up to 2 years of post-qualification experience, or non-CA finance generalists with 4 to 5 years of hands-on experience.
- Strong working knowledge of Tally, GST, and TDS.
- Comfortably owning the full scope of finance work independently, from bookkeeping to compliance to reporting, not just an oversight or review function
- Based in Mumbai and able to work on-site.
- Strong attention to detail and ability to work with minimal supervision in a fast-paced startup environment.
