Where we place
India is where Talfino is strongest. Our founder has spent eleven years across BFSI, IT services and technology here — including at Citi and Capgemini — which means genuine relationships rather than a database of CVs.
Mumbai for banking, NBFC and financial services leadership. Bangalore and Hyderabad for GCC, SaaS and engineering leadership. Chennai for manufacturing-adjacent finance and delivery leadership. Delhi NCR for promoter groups, family offices and investment firms.
Roles we run most
What makes India different
The depth of talent is genuine, but so is the competition for it. Strong finance and technology leaders in India typically hold multiple offers and are rarely on job boards. Searches that rely on inbound applications systematically miss them.
Compensation has also moved quickly. A CFO in India now commands ₹80–180L, with GCC-linked roles carrying a further premium. Benchmarking against last year's data is the most common reason an offer is declined at the final stage.
Discretion by default
Sensitive mandates — replacing an incumbent, family office roles, pre-fundraise CFO searches — are run founder-only, with anonymised briefs until mutual interest is confirmed and no public advertising at any point.
