Job Description

Job Title: Chief Financial Officer - The Money Maestro (a.k.a. The One Who

Stops Us from Going Broke)



Mattresses are all about balance-just like our finances. We need someone who can crunch

numbers, predict financial disasters before they happen, and make sure we actually have money

left at the end of the month. If Excel sheets excite you more than a blockbuster movie and you

can spot an unnecessary expense from a mile away, welcome aboard.


What You'll Be Doing (Besides Telling Us We Can't Buy Fancy Coffee Machines)

Financial Strategy & Planning - Ensuring we don't burn through cash like a startup on

caffeine.

Budgeting & Financial Management - Making budgets that people actually stick to (or

at least pretend to).

Accounting & Compliance - Keeping us in the good books of tax authorities (nobody

likes a surprise audit).

Financial Reporting & Analysis - Presenting numbers in a way that even non-finance

people understand.

Team Leadership & Development - Leading a team that doesn't break into a cold sweat

at the word "audit."

Risk Management - Spotting financial landmines before we step on them.

Investor Relations & Fundraising - Talking to banks and investors without making them

nervous.

ERP & Financial Systems - Making sure our financial systems aren't stuck in the

Windows 98 era.


What We're Looking For (Besides Someone Who Actually Likes Numbers)

8+ years of experience (at least 3-5 years leading the charge).

CA Qualification Mandatory.

Experience in manufacturing and D2C -because finance is different when actual

products are involved.

Deep knowledge of financial regulations, tax laws, and accounting (because we don't

want to learn the hard way).

Proficiency in Tally, Excel, and ERP systems-if your idea of fun is building a financial

model, we like you already.

A problem-solver who can balance growth, risk, and making sure payday never fails.


Why You'll Love This Role

You get to be the one who actually controls the money (power move).

A seat at the leadership table-your decisions will shape the future, not just the balance

sheet.

A growing brand that actually listens to its finance team (most of the time).

A chance to build financial strategies from scratch instead of just inheriting someone

else's mess.

You'll literally be surrounded by mattresses, which is great if you ever need to lie down after a tough quater.
