Strategic finance and operations guidance

Comprehensive financial consulting services tailored to your needs

Hi, I'm Jay Maniar

I’ve had a pretty diverse career in finance, working in everything from professional services to online betting. I’ve done a lot of cool stuff, like creating finance departments from scratch and mentoring people. These days, I’m focusing on my strengths in operations and technology.

I love working on projects that involve digital solutions, like making finance more efficient or creating onboarding software that wows new hires. I’m really into digital transformation, so I even went and got a Post Grad Diploma in Digital Business Transformation from MIT/Columbia Business School.

I’m a versatile finance and operations pro who’s worked in both fast-growing startups and corporate environments. My last gig was as Director of Operations for KPMG in the Middle East, where I helped the company adopt digital tools to win more business and make more money.

Fun fact: I’ve always wanted to be a pilot and have had a few flying lessons building up to my private pilots license. According to Forbes article – pilots make great entrepreneurs.

“Its not the critic who counts.”

Im always inspired by Teddy Roosevelts quote as it’s so apt for all entrepreneurs who undertake the biggest challenge of their lives. 

“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”
