Location: Remote (India) About MAVI

MAVI places experienced finance and accounting professionals into senior, high-ownership roles at high-growth US companies. Our professionals join in-house finance teams in full-time, long-term roles, not short-term projects. As AI takes over more transactional accounting, the people who review the output, question it, and own the result matter more than ever. MAVI professionals work alongside US finance leaders, using AI tools to do more and applying the judgment to catch what those tools get wrong. At one client, an AR dashboard now used across the organization was built almost entirely by MAVI talent.

We stay involved throughout, from role alignment and interview preparation to onboarding and long-term career development.
