At Monkey Ads, every team member plays a unique role in driving our mission forward. Today, we’re excited to spotlight one of the core pillars of our company — Viraj Thakkar, our Senior Finance Manager, who has been with us for over 3 years.
The Backbone of Our Financial Stability
In the fast-paced world of digital marketing, someone needs to keep a calm eye on the numbers — and that’s exactly what Viraj does. With a deep understanding of finance and a naturally observant mindset, he manages both administrative operations and company finances with precision and grace.
When asked what he loves most about his role, Viraj’s answer was simple yet powerful — “Flexibility.” It’s this balance of structure and freedom that keeps him motivated and consistent in everything he does.
A Team Player, A Problem Solver
Viraj is the go-to person at Monkey Ads whenever there’s a question about budgets, reimbursements, or, let’s be honest — money! But more than that, his teammates appreciate his ability to take care of the little details — the “micro things” that often go unnoticed but are crucial for smooth operations.
A Project Close to the Heart
If there’s one project that stands out to Viraj, it’s Monkey Ads itself. Being a part of the company’s journey and seeing it grow from the inside out has been his proudest experience.
Skills That Set Him Apart
Viraj thrives on three key strengths:
- Observing
- Learning
- Accepting
These qualities not only make him a great finance manager but also someone who adapts easily and supports others with calm composure.
A Glimpse Beyond the Desk
While his work involves managing spreadsheets and financial reports, outside the office, Viraj is a completely different vibe. His hobbies include traveling and, interestingly, sleeping — his well-deserved break after a long week of budgets and bills.
There’s also something deeply philosophical about him. His favorite motto is:
“Jo ho rha aur jo hoga vo sab purvanirdharit hi hai.”
(Whatever is happening and will happen is all predestined.)
Advice for New Team Members
“Come with patience and an easy-going mindset. Take ownership of even the smallest tasks — they matter.”
His Most Memorable Moment?
Something as simple yet heartwarming as eating together with the team stands out to him. Because at Monkey Ads, it’s not just about work — it’s about community, connection, and shared success.
Final Thoughts
Viraj Thakkar isn’t just a finance manager; he’s an integral part of the Monkey Ads family. His consistency, dedication, and easygoing nature help make our workplace what it is today — structured, supportive, and spirited.
