Job details:
We're looking for a CA who wants to build, not just bill.
FinBuild is a compliance and accounting firm built specifically for early stage founders. Five paying clients across food, AI and other early stage sectors. An accounting team in Chandigarh handling day to day execution. Client onboarding, SOPs and CRM already operational.
What we do not have yet is someone with the technical depth and business judgment to sit between that team and our clients. Someone who can catch what needs catching, answer what needs a CA's eye, and think with us about where this firm is going. That is this role.
This is a cofounder search, not a job listing.
What you'll own
• Finding potential clients, pitching, building relationships and closing leads
• Technical review of work before it reaches clients, catching gaps the accounting team may miss
• On the spot client queries that need real CA judgment, not a templated response
• Thinking with the founding team on how we price, position and grow
• Stepping into operations when the team needs it
You'll fit here if you
• Just cleared your CA, or have up to 2 years post qualification experience
• Worked with startup or SME clients during articleship and genuinely enjoyed it
• Are as comfortable talking to a founder as you are reviewing a balance sheet
• Flag problems early rather than quietly waiting
• Are comfortable with ambiguity and ownership without a defined ladder above you
• Care about the business side of running a firm, not just the technical side
Who you'll build with
• Manya, cofounder, ACCA qualified, leads client relationships and strategy
• Varun Chawla, cofounder of 91springboard and founder of Build3, brings business development depth, investor networks and startup ecosystem relationships
• CA Arvind Tuli, 25+ years, leading tax educator and author with Bharat Law House, senior advisor
• An accounting team in Chandigarh running execution across all clients
How we work
The client experience should never depend on who is available that day, so everything gets documented and made repeatable. We respond the same hour. We flag problems early instead of hoping they resolve. We expect everyone to say what they actually think.
Compensation
Real equity in a firm that already has paying clients and momentum. Cash starts modest and grows as the firm grows. A stipend is on the table depending on your situation. We would rather have a proper conversation about the full picture in person than set numbers on a page before we have spoken.
