We're GrowthSchool. And we built Outskill.

GrowthSchool started with one belief: you learn a skill fastest from the person actually doing it. So we partnered with the top 1% of instructors to build high-impact, cohort-based courses in personal and skilled growth for learners around the world and used AI to make that learning personal at a scale a classroom never could.

Then AI changed what "upskilling" even means. Roles started getting rewritten faster than curriculums could keep up, and the real divide stopped being skilled versus unskilled. It became AI-ready versus not.

So, we built Outskill, our AI education arm, to close that gap, practical, implementation-first AI training for professionals, teams and enterprises. Today Outskill is one of the largest AI education companies in the world: 16M+ learners across 160+ countries, and programs running everywhere from individual upskilling to enterprise AI transformation.

Our mission: Make 100 million people AI-ready by 2028.

What that actually feels like day to day: we're 300+ people, moving at a speed that surprises most people who join us. Products ship in weeks, not quarters. There's no thick layer of process between an idea and it going live. You'll own things visibly bigger than your title. Some experiments will fail publicly, and we'll talk about them openly on Monday.

If you need a finished playbook before you start, this will be uncomfortable. If you'd rather write the playbook, you'll like it here.

The Opportunity

We're looking for an Assistant/ Deputy Manager – Finance & Accounts to own the financial backbone of GrowthSchool.

This is a blended Accounting and Finance role.

You'll be responsible for ensuring our books are always accurate, compliant, audit-ready, and capable of supporting a fast-scaling global business.



You'll work closely with leadership to establish strong financial governance while continuously improving systems, controls, and processes.

If you enjoy bringing order to complexity, thrive in high-ownership environments, and take pride in getting every detail right, we'd love to meet you.

What You'll Own

Group Accounting & Financial Close

- Maintain accurate books of accounts on a daily basis and report to management.
- Own end-to-end monthly book closure across all GrowthSchool group entities.
- Ensure accurate accounting of GLs, accruals, provisions, depreciation, prepaid expenses, and inter-company transactions.
- Prepare schedules required for consolidation and group reporting.
- Drive timely month-end and year-end closing with zero surprises.

Business Partnership

- Work closely with Finance leadership on reporting, governance and strategic finance initiatives.
- Provide accurate financial information to enable faster business decisions.
- Support new business initiatives from an accounting and compliance perspective.
- Help build a finance function capable of supporting global expansion.

What Success Looks Like (First 6–12 Months)

- Daily accounting and reporting without errors
- Monthly books are closed accurately and on time without escalations.
- Zero missed statutory or regulatory compliance deadlines.
- Clean statutory and tax audits with no material observations.




- Leadership has complete confidence in financial reporting.
- Strong internal controls and accounting processes are implemented across group entities.
- Finance operations scale seamlessly alongside business growth.

Who We're Looking For

- Have managed end-to-end books for growing organizations.
- Have worked closely with auditors, tax consultants and regulatory authorities.
- Enjoy solving operational complexity through structured processes.
- Are hands-on, detail-oriented, and execution-focused.

Experience in startups or high-growth companies will be an added advantage.

What We're Evaluating

We're less interested in how many years you've worked and more interested in how much ownership you've demonstrated.

We'll be looking for evidence of:

- Ownership of complete financial books and compliance outcomes.
- Strong understanding of accounting principles and financial controls.
- Ability to independently manage audits and statutory interactions.
- High attention to detail with strong process discipline.
