About The Role
We're looking for a Finance Manager who understands the pace and complexity of an e-commerce business and can take ownership of finance operations, financial planning, reporting, and business performance.
This role goes beyond accounting and compliance. You'll work closely with the founders and business teams to understand unit economics, manage cash flows, track costs, improve financial visibility, and help the company make better business decisions.
The ideal candidate has prior experience in e-commerce, D2C, retail, or a consumer internet business and is comfortable building processes from scratch in a fast-moving startup workplace.
What You'll Do
- Financial Planning & Business Analysis
- Own budgeting, forecasting, cash flow planning, and financial reporting.
- Prepare monthly financial statements, management reports, and business performance dashboards.
- Track revenue, gross margins, operating expenses, and profitability across business functions.
- Work with the founders to evaluate business performance, identify financial risks, and support key business decisions.
- Build financial models for new initiatives, business expansion, and growth plans.
2. E-commerce Finance & Unit Economics
- Track and analyse key e-commerce metrics, including gross merchandise value (GMV), net revenue, average order value (AOV), contribution margins, customer acquisition costs, and repeat purchase rates.
- Monitor the financial impact of discounts, promotions, refunds, cancellations, returns, and customer incentives.
- Analyse product-level margins, inventory costs, fulfilment expenses, and delivery costs.
- Work with category, operations, growth, and supply chain teams to improve margins and control costs.
- Build visibility into the profitability of different products, categories, customer segments, and sales channels.
3. Cash Flow & Working Capital Management
- Manage cash flow forecasting, working capital, vendor payments, and receivables.
- Monitor inventory-related cash commitments and payment cycles.
- Ensure sufficient liquidity while balancing business growth and operational requirements.
- Establish clear processes for expense tracking, payment approvals, and financial controls.
4. Accounting, Compliance & Taxation
- Oversee bookkeeping, monthly and annual closing, and the preparation of financial statements.
- Ensure timely GST, TDS, income tax, and other applicable statutory filings in coordination with internal teams and external consultants.
- Manage audits, reconciliations, documentation, and compliance requirements.
- Maintain accurate financial records and establish robust internal controls.
- Coordinate with auditors, tax consultants, banks, and other financial partners.
5. Process Building & Financial Controls
- Build and improve finance processes, reporting systems, and approval workflows as the business scales.
- Streamline vendor onboarding, invoicing, reimbursements, expense management, and payment processes.
- Identify opportunities to automate repetitive finance tasks and improve reporting accuracy.
- Ensure financial data is reliable, accessible, and useful for business teams.
6. Fundraising & Strategic Finance
- Support fundraising activities through financial models, investor reporting, and preparation of relevant financial information.
- Track budgets against actuals and provide clear explanations for key variances.
- Support business planning, scenario analysis, and evaluation of new growth opportunities.
- Work directly with the founders on financial priorities and strategic decisions.
What we're looking for:
- 4–7 years of experience in finance, preferably with prior experience in e-commerce, D2C, retail, or consumer internet businesses.
- Strong understanding of financial planning and analysis (FP&A;), accounting, cash flow management, and financial reporting.
- Hands-on experience with e-commerce unit economics, contribution margins, inventory accounting, and working capital management.
- Good understanding of GST, TDS, taxation, statutory compliance, and audit processes in India.
- Experience building financial models, budgets, forecasts, and management dashboards.
- Proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets; experience with accounting software, ERP systems, or financial reporting tools is a plus.
- Ability to work with large datasets, spot trends, and translate numbers into actionable business insights.
- Strong ownership, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
- Comfortable working closely with founders and cross-functional teams in a growing startup.
What'll make you a strong fit
- You understand that revenue growth and profitability are not the same thing.
- You can connect day-to-day financial decisions with business outcomes.
- You're comfortable working with incomplete information, building processes from scratch, and improving them as the company grows.
- You can explain complex financial information clearly to non-finance stakeholders.
- You take ownership of problems instead of waiting for processes to be handed to you.
Why Join Wingit
- Work directly with the founders and influence key business decisions.
- Take ownership of the finance function in a growing consumer startup.
- Build financial systems and processes that will scale with the business.
- Work with a high-calibre team in a category that is being reimagined.
