About Pravin Rao

I am currently the highly-motivated and well-experienced Chief Financial Officer of an exciting packaging related Company with plants based in Daman and Dahej, India. I have a well-rounded executive finance and accounting leadership background with experiences that include: startup management, investor relations, finance and accounting management, Secretarial and Legal activities within the IT, retail and manufacturing industries in enterprises ranging from startup to over $10 billion. I believe my qualifications and experience clearly define me as the ideal finance executive. I have a broad business perspective that is the result of experience in several key areas that virtually all businesses share: Accounting, Finance, Information Technology, Administration and Operations. I am a very hands-on executive that is responsible for international accounting processes for our firm and I am strategic partner to our Managing director. I am interested in smaller organizations because of the hands-on, always-on, and generally wide scope of their typical finance group. I enjoy being involved with all areas of a business because I believe that the true financial steward, or financial guardian, of the organization is the CFO that understands and has confidence in all aspects of their business. Specialties: I have been involved in set-up of three start-up companies including two captive development set-ups for top notch MNC\'s.
