Finance Director
Full-time · Leadership Team · Reporting to the CEO / Founder
Location: Jaipur, Rajasthan
Who We Are
AvyahCorp is on a mission to make healthy snacking accessible to every Indian household. We believe clean snacks shouldn't come with a premium price tag. We're a fast-growing startup, taking on legacy giants and building generation-defining snack brands that are clean and yet kind to your wallet.
The Opportunity
This is a role to build the financial backbone of the company, right at the early stage. As Finance Director, you will be one of the most senior hires on our leadership team and a true partner to the founders in shaping AvyahCorp's next chapter. You'll walk into a business that is scaling fast and needs a sharp, hands-on finance leader to bring structure, discipline, and firepower to how we work, raise capital, report our numbers, manage risk, and make decisions. If you want to build a finance function from the ground up, sit at the table where strategy is made, and see the direct impact of your work on a company's growth story — this is your role.

Strong command of financial modeling, MIS design, compliance frameworks and modern finance tools/ERPs (Tally or similar).
Clear and confident communication to simplify complex numbers for founders, investors and non-finance teams alike.
Comfortable with the pace, ambiguity and hands-on grind of a fast-growing startup. It gets crazy at times.
