About the role:
You'll run the unit's day-to-day operations and report to the Business Operations Manager. You'll work closely with the CFO, the Financial Controller, group company teams, vendors and legal counsel.
What you'll do:
- Finance operations (~60%): petty cash and expense tagging, monthly travel reconciliations, legal cost summaries, and the weekly payout sheet
- Payments: track vendor invoices from receipt to payment, check them against purchase orders and approvals, verify GST/TDS, and keep a central payment log

- Vendors and office (~25%): vendor onboarding, contract summaries and signatures, insurance and lease admin, and running the Mumbai office (including coordination with the Bangalore team)
- Production support: guest scheduling, travel and paperwork for podcasts and shoots, and tracking costs against budgets
- Analysis (~15%, growing over time): budgets, financial models and commercial comparisons for new shows, events and deals
What we're looking for:
- 1–3 years in business operations, finance operations, consulting, or a founder's office (startup or media preferred)
- Strong Excel / Google Sheets skills, including lookups, pivot tables and trackers
- Working knowledge of invoices, GST, TDS and basic accounting
- Comfortable reading contracts and picking out key terms and dates
- Clear written English, strong follow-through, good judgement on what to escalate, and discretion with confidential information
- Good to have: B.Com, BBA, CA Inter or MBA. Exposure to media, events or vendor-heavy operations. Comfort using AI tools.
Why join us:
You'll see how a founder-led holding company runs across finance, legal, vendors and production. You'll own the recurring operations early, have a clear path into analysis and deal work, and work with a small senior team that reviews your work and invests in your growth.
