• Budgeting: Ensuring that everything is pre-budgeted and within the limits and approvals
• MIS: Providing weekly reports to founders, investors and the board. With commentary and reasons. A critical aspect of this role is to understand tools such as ERP to get the reports.

out because of lack of knowledge or not being aware.
• Technology: We use MS CRM, OPEN ERP, etc. and all possible tech/cloud resources. We need working experience
of these.
• Team Leadership: This role includes managing a 2-‐3 member finance team. More importantly this role is about
managing complexity.
