Associate Vice President – Finance @ Poonawalla Fincorp

About

I am a Financial Controller and CMA (India) with 10+ years of experience across multinational corporations and high-growth FinTech / lending businesses, delivering end-to-end finance ownership and financial controllership across reporting, controls, audits, systems, and business partnering. My background includes working with organizations such as HP, Volvo, Navi, Werize, and Poonawalla Fincorp, operating in complex, fast-scaling environments where financial discipline, risk management, and predictability are critical to sustainable growth. I have owned large treasury and lending portfolios, including managing a USD 700M treasury book covering valuations, profit recognition, and settlements. I have also delivered tangible business outcomes such as recovering USD 1M in revenue leakage through strengthened controls and reducing receivable cycles from 90 to 30 days, materially improving liquidity and cash visibility. I have led and built finance teams of up to 7 members, fostering accountability, strong close discipline, and a control-oriented culture. I work closely with Product and Technology teams to embed financial logic, controls, and automation into core systems, including Loan Management Systems (LMS) and ERP platforms such as SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Zoho Books. My controllership focus spans IFRS-compliant reporting, audit readiness, ECL and credit risk assessment, co-lending and partner reconciliations, and enterprise-level risk oversight across treasury, receivables, and compliance. My contributions to finance transformation and control strengthening have been recognized with the MD’s Emerging Talent Award (2025). As a finance leader, I prioritize: Clean, defensible financial reporting Strong internal controls and governance Cash flow visibility and working capital discipline Decision-oriented MIS for leadership Scalable finance systems and processes I am now positioning myself for a Finance Controller / Head of Finance track role within GCC, where finance is expected to act as a trusted partner to leadership, a guardian of risk, and an enabler of sustainable growth.
