About the role
About Aspora
People on the move deserve a bank that moves with them. Since 2022, Aspora has been building a borderless financial operating system that makes money as mobile and transparent as its users.
Backed by influential venture capitalists like Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Hummingbird Ventures, Y Combinator & Global Founders Capital. We're a team of 75+ across India, the UK, the UAE, EU and the US, working with extreme ownership, radical candour, and an obsession with customer impact.
We celebrate builders who question assumptions, ship fast, and turn regulatory complexity into elegant solutions. If you’re driven to redefine what global banking can be, we’d love to build the future with you.
About the Role
Aspora is building a global financial operating system — and finance sits at the heart of that journey.
We’re looking for a Finance & Accounting Manager who brings both rigour and an operator’s instinct to everything they do.
This role owns the end-to-end finance engine: clean books, compliant structures, sharp MIS, and founder-ready financial narratives across India and global entities. You won’t just report numbers — you’ll help shape decisions, spot risks early, and build financial foundations that scale with speed.
You’ll work closely with founders, operations, product, and people teams, translating financial data into clear business insight. From month-end closes to investor-ready reporting, ESOP accounting to global compliance — if it moves money, you’ll be close to it.
This is a high-ownership, high-trust role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, loves building systems from scratch, and wants to help create a company that lasts — not just one that grows fast.
What You’ll Own :
End-to-End Finance Engine : Own the full finance lifecycle — from daily books to investor-ready balance sheets — across India and global entities
Operator-First Finance : Bring an operator’s mindset to finance by translating numbers into real business decisions, working closely with founders to shape Aspora’s future, not just report its past.
MIS & Performance Reporting :
Own monthly and quarterly MIS reporting
Prepare cost-centre-wise and unit-wise P&L
Build reports that are clean, timely, and insight-driven (not just numbers on a page)
Statutory, Tax & Regulatory Compliance : Own monthly, quarterly, and annual Statutory filings, Direct & indirect tax compliance and Regulatory reporting across jurisdictions
Cash Flow & Financial Storytelling : Be the go-to person for everything from tax compliance to cash flow narratives. If it moves money, you’ll know about it.
ESOP Accounting & Reporting : Own ESOP accounting, reporting, and reconciliations — ensuring clean cap tables and zero surprises.
Reconciliation Master
Own and master end-to-end reconciliations of all fund movements across geographies and entities.
Ensure 100% accuracy in bank, wallet, gateway, inter-company, and ledger reconciliations.
Investigate and resolve variances proactively, ensuring clean books and zero leakages.
Build robust reconciliation processes that scale with transaction volumes and global expansion
Systems & Process Scaling : Set up smart, scalable finance systems, streamline workflows, automate wherever possible, and eliminate inefficient spreadsheets.
Global Compliance Exposure : Ensure compliance across borders while maintaining startup speed and flexibility.
Cross-Functional Collaboration : Work closely with product, people, and operations teams — because finance touches everything.
Continuous Learning : Stay updated on global finance trends, tax regulations, and automation tools. We’re building global, not local-only.
What We Need :
You’re a qualified CA with 2-4 years of experience — bonus points if you've wrangled chaos in a startup or high-growth environment.
You've owned global finance ops before — across currencies, compliance zones, and maybe even timezones.
You speak P&L and cash flow fluently, but also know how to break it down for non-finance folks without spreadsheets catching fire.
You’ve led month-end closures, statutory audits, and know your way around TDS, GST, ROC, and all the other acronyms that keep founders up at night.
Fundraise-ready? Yes yes — you’ve built models, managed due diligence, and and kept your cool when the pressure was high and the data room demanding.
You’ve worked on or managed ESOPs — you understand both the spreadsheets and the stories behind them.
Comfortable with tools like Zoho Books, google sheets , Excel, and ideally some automation magic systems.
Detail-obsessed but not a bottleneck — you know when to ship, when to double-check, and when to just move.
You love the building process, but hate red tape. You’ll help us build finance foundations that scale, not slow us down
Who You Are (aka your financial superpowers) :
You’re obsessed with clarity — the kind that only clean books, sharp forecasting, and rock-solid compliance can bring.
You think like an operator, not just an accountant and number cruncher — strategy excites you as much as spreadsheets, and you care as much about why the numbers move as you do about how.
You love turning chaos into structure, and structure into momentum.
You’re the kind of person who triple-checks numbers and calls out the blind spots no one else sees.
You thrive in fast-paced, high-ownership environments where your judgment and ethics actually matter.
You’re calm under pressure, sharp in ambiguity, and always one step ahead of that next deadline or regulatory curveball.
You’re not just here to “close books.” You’re here to help build a company that lasts — with financial discipline and founder-level ownership.
Above all, you’re trustworthy, calm in chaos, and fiercely curious — you want to build something that lasts.
