You’ll lead large audit teams across multiple verticals and timelines, ensuring audits close with accuracy, efficiency, and compliance.

• Risk-Based Auditing: Apply risk assessment methodology to focus audit effort on high-impact areas.
• Regulatory Awareness: Strong understanding of Companies Act, Income Tax Act, SEBI regulations, CARO, IFC, CSR compliance, and other applicable laws.
• Tech-Driven Approach: Leverage audit tools, checklists, and digital documentation systems to improve turnaround time and accuracy.

Requirements

• Chartered Accountant (CA) with 4-6 years of statutory audit experience, preferably in audit firms.
• Independent Operator: Must have a proven track record of independently closing audits without supervision.
• Team Leader: Experience managing multiple teams leads and audit teams simultaneously.
• Subject Matter Expert: In-depth knowledge of Ind AS, IGAAP, SA standards, and financial statement preparation & review.

• Deadline-Oriented: High accountability, thrives under pressure, and delivers audits on time—every time.
• Excellent Communication: Strong articulation for client presentations, board reporting, and team guidance.

• Proactive, organized, and obsessed with audit quality
• No-nonsense attitude towards compliance and ethics
• Capable of mentoring juniors while managing CXO-level expectations
• Problem solver with a solution-oriented mindset
