Assistant Manager

Vivek Vijay Agarwal & Associates

Accounts Executive

I started my CA practice in a 150 sq ft room.
Just one intern, broken furniture, and a laptop that didn’t boot unless I begged it to.

That year, I earned ₹2.5L.
Less than my salary as an employee.

But it taught me more than CA finals ever could:

How to solve real business problems, not just balance books.

What I Do:
Today, I work as a Virtual CFO & Financial Systems Consultant for startups, founders, and agencies across:

India | US | UK | UAE | Singapore

I simplify finance and automate chaos using:
• Clean financial models
• AI-integrated reporting
• Tools like Zoho, Excel, Smartsheet, QuickBooks
• SOPs that actually get followed

From handling budgets to setting up cash flow dashboards to implementing AI-based fraud checks, I help businesses grow with clarity, not confusion.

Who I Help:
- Startup Founders struggling to manage money while scaling.
- CA Firms looking to modernize their delivery and tech stack.
- E-commerce, SaaS, Service Businesses who want investor-ready systems
- Young CAs/Interns who want mentorship in the real world of finance

Why It Works:
I don’t offer “advice.”
I roll up my sleeves, get into your numbers, and build what works fast, practical, and aligned with your vision.

If you’re someone who believes finance is more than tax filings and deadlines.

Rishi Arora

Most leadership hires and senior career moves don’t fail because of talent.
They fail because of judgment gaps before the decision is made.

I work on high-stakes decisions at those moments.

As Co-Founder of HireVeda, I partner with founders, boards, and leadership teams on senior hiring across startups and India-based GCCs.

Through ExecEdge, I work with senior professionals navigating leadership transitions and invisible job markets.

Different seats. Same risk.

A wrong leadership hire costs years of momentum, trust, and culture.
A wrong career move costs reputation, optionality, and long-term trajectory.

I don’t optimize for resumes or surface-level fit.
I focus on judgment, signals, incentives, and decision-making before commitments are made.

Background: Chartered Accountant by training. IIM Lucknow alumnus.
Experience across operating roles, building companies, and advising leadership teams at critical inflection points.

If you’re thinking through a high-stakes leadership decision or a senior career transition, you’re already in the territory I work in.
