Business Manager to Managing Director

We are seeking an experienced professional — MBA or a qualified Chartered Accountant (CA), with a minimum of 3–5 years post-qualification experience (PQE) — to serve as a trusted right hand to the Managing Director (MD) of a diversified group with multiple business interests. This is a senior support role for a candidate who has hands-on experience managing a business or business unit, and can now bring that operational and financial judgment to support the MD across several ventures simultaneously.

This is not an entry-level PA position — we are looking for someone who has previously run, co-run, or held significant operational/financial responsibility within a business, and is now seeking a role working closely with ownership/leadership.

Tasks

• Oversee day-to-day coordination across the MD's multiple business interests, ensuring priorities are tracked and deadlines met
• Review and manage business finance and accounts, including monitoring cash flow, budgets, and financial reporting from each business unit
• Manage the MD's diary, scheduling, and stakeholder liaison, prioritising competing demands and ensuring efficient use of the MD's time
• Follow up on action items, decisions, and correspondence on behalf of the MD across all business units
• Draft, edit, and proofread reports, and executive summaries for internal and external stakeholders
• Identify, escalate, and summarise operational or financial issues requiring the MD's attention, with recommended courses of action
• Liaise with department heads, external advisors (legal, accounting, banking), and business partners on the MD's behalf
• Support strategic projects, including business reviews, market research, and investment or expansion proposals
• Maintain confidentiality and exercise sound judgment when handling sensitive business and financial information

Requirements

• MBA from a recognised institution OR a qualified Chartered Accountant (CA) — finance, general management, or strategy background preferred
• Minimum 3–5 years of post-qualification experience (PQE), with proven experience managing a business, business unit, or department — real operational or P&L responsibility, not purely staff/support experience
• Ideally, prior experience supporting senior leadership or a business owner with multiple ventures
• Strong financial literacy: able to read management accounts, interpret cash flow statements, and flag anomalies
• Excellent written English, with proven ability to produce polished reports, summaries, and correspondence
• Highly organised, proactive, and comfortable managing multiple workstreams under time pressure
• Discreet, trustworthy, and professional, with strong stakeholder management skills
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint
• Based in or willing to work Delhi NCR hours; role is remote but requires strong availability and responsiveness, including occasional flexibility outside standard hours

Benefits

• Direct exposure to senior leadership and cross-business strategic decision-making
• Remote working flexibility with a Delhi NCR-based preference
• Competitive salary of ₹3–6 LPA, based on experience
• Opportunity to build a long-term career supporting a growing multi-business group

Interested candidates should send their CV along with a short cover note outlining their business management experience .
