Living Timeless is looking for a commercially strong Accountant / Finance Executive who can manage core accounting while also owning P&L; visibility, MIS, project profitability, cash flow, receivables, payables, and cost control.

- Coordinate with CA and auditors
- Verify purchase invoices, POs and payment approvals
- Track factory, showroom and corporate overheads separately
- Maintain machinery, fixed-asset and capex accounting
- Support payroll, incentives and reimbursements
- Develop financial controls to prevent duplicate, incorrect or unauthorized payments

P&L; Ownership

= Gross Profit

Less:



Sales & Marketing

They should be able to clearly explain why profitability moved month-on-month, not simply produce the report.

Management Reporting

Expected reporting should include:

- Payroll as % of revenue
- Fixed vs variable costs
- Receivable ageing

We want someone who proactively flags:

Gross margin has dropped from 42% to 35% this month.

This project has exceeded its installation budget.

Material cost on this category is running above target.

X is receivable but overdue.

Factory overhead has increased faster than revenue.

This showroom is generating revenue but is not yet contribution-positive.

Based on upcoming vendor payments and collections, we will require X cash over the next 30 days.

Candidate Profile

- B.Com / M.Com / MBA Finance / equivalent
- 3–6+ years of relevant experience
- Strong understanding of P&L;, MIS, cost accounting and financial analysis

Most Important Trait

We want someone who also asks:

Why did we spend this money, which project does it belong to, what margin are we making, and what does this do to the P&L;
