Overview

We are looking for a strategic and hands-on FP&A and Internal Audit Lead to join our leadership team. This is a unique cross-entity role designed to provide financial clarity, real-time decision support, and internal controls across two fast-growing, founder-led companies. The role is ideal for someone who thrives in high-speed environments, brings a deep understanding of financial structuring and analysis, and can embed audit discipline without slowing down execution.

Key Responsibilities

A. Financial Planning & Analysis

– Own and drive program-level P&Ls

– Build and maintain entity-level P&Ls

– Create and manage weekly cash flow forecasts – individual and combined.

– Lead weekly MIS reporting, budget vs actual variance, and forward-looking projections.

– Deliver sharp insights on burn rate, expense trends, and revenue realization.

B. Internal Audit & Compliance

– Execute and monitor the internal audit calendar across all finance functions.

– Conduct vendor, fee, payroll, and expense audits – ensuring controls, tagging, and documentation.

– Collaborate with HR, Admin, Ops, and Business teams to align financial governance.

– Set up review loops for reimbursements, T&E, Dinero approvals, and statutory filings.

C. Founder & Board Readiness

– Ensure real-time readiness of financial statements for leadership decisions.

– Validate commercial proposals, pricing models, vendor contracts, and strategic investments.

– Support board reporting, investor data requests, and performance reviews.

What We’re Looking For

– Experience in FP&A, audit, or corporate finance.

– Strong understanding of multi-entity accounting, SaaS-like financial models, and internal controls.

– Proven ability to work in fast-paced, founder-led environments.

– Excellent in Excel, financial modeling, and systems like Zoho Books, Tally, or ERP.

– Bonus: Prior experience in education, startups, or handling dual-entity structures.

Success in This Role Looks Like:

– All financial reports go out on-time, without follow-up.

– Numbers come with insight, not just information.

– Founder/ Directors have instant clarity on cash flows, P&Ls, and burn.

– Finance becomes a strategic partner, not just a backend function.

– Internal audits are proactive, not reactive.

Why Join Us?

1. Work directly with founders and senior leadership across two high-growth companies.

2. Get exposure to multi-entity operations, global expansions, and investor-facing work.

3. Own your outcomes with zero micromanagement and full trust.

4. Shape systems from scratch – not maintain legacy ones.

If you’re looking to lead with insight, not just compliance, and want to build something meaningful at the intersection of education, tech, and business – we’d love to hear from you.
