Job Description

Fresh Platter is looking for a high-ownership, hands-on Finance & Strategy Manager to build and run a modern, technology-driven finance function.

/n

/n

This is not a conventional accounting role, and it is not a role for someone who wants to manage finance from a distance.

/n

/n

We are looking for someone who has worked in a startup or similarly resource-constrained, quick-growing setting and understands what that means: lean teams, evolving systems, changing priorities, broad responsibilities, and the need to personally step in and get things done.

/n

/n

You will initially be the senior finance owner in the company and will work closely with the Founder & CEO. As the business grows in scale and complexity, we expect to hire a CFO. Until then, this role will be responsible for building the financial discipline, systems, reporting, controls and planning capability required to take the company to that stage.

What you will own

/n
Ensure the company’s books and financial information are continuously up to date.




/n
Build processes so transactions are captured correctly at source instead of being reconstructed later.
/n
Ensure management can access significant financial information whenever required.
/n
Personally get involved in reconciliations, controls and problem-solving wherever necessary.
/n
Build checks and exception alerts so problems are identified early.

Business Metrics & MIS

/n

/n
Understand the business deeply across procurement, inventory, operations, logistics, sales, collections and working capital.
/n
Identify the metrics that matter for each function and for management.
/n
Work with operating and technology teams to ensure the right data is captured at source.
/n
Build dashboards, alerts and reports that help teams continuously monitor performance.
/n
Go beyond reporting numbers — identify trends, risks, exceptions and areas requiring management attention.
