Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

Client Details:

is a modern jewellery brand being built for today’s India —

design-led, technology-backed, and deeply human at heart. We work with

lab-grown diamonds, celebrity creators, and a strong D2C engine to

create jewellery that feels aspirational yet accessible.

This is not a traditional jewellery business. And this is not a

traditional CFO role.

Role overview:

Job Titel: Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

Experience: 14-18 years

Location: Bandra, Mumbai

Why This Role Matters

the CFO is not a back-office function. You are a thinking

partner to the founder, a steady hand during uncertainty, and a sharp

mind during growth.

We are looking for someone who understands numbers, but more importantly

understands people, pressure, ambition, and the reality of building

something from zero.

What You Will Really Do

- Work closely with the founder to turn vision into financially sound

decisions

- Build Ektra’s financial foundation from scratch — clean, simple,

scalable

- Own cash flow with discipline in a capital-intensive jewellery

business

- Understand jewellery economics deeply: gold, diamonds, making,

wastage, inventory turns

- Create clear unit economics and SKU-level profitability

- Prepare the company for fundraising — models, decks, due diligence,

investor conversations

- Be investor-ready at all times, even when we are still figuring

things out

- Ensure compliance, audits, GST, tax, and governance are tight and

future-proof

- Build systems and MIS that help decisions, not just reports

- Grow and mentor a finance team as the brand scales

Who You Are

You are someone who has seen growth — and stress — up close. You are

comfortable in ambiguity and don’t need perfect information to make good

decisions.

You don’t hide behind spreadsheets. You step into conversations.

- 10–18 years of experience in consumer, retail, D2C, jewellery, or

inventory-led businesses

- Strong grasp of working capital and cash flow realities

- Experience with fundraising or investor interactions

- Startup or growth-stage mindset — hands-on, practical, involved

- High integrity and calm temperament

- Thinks like an owner, not an employee
