About The Convergence Foundation

The Convergence Foundation (TCF) is an Indian philanthropic foundation established by Ashish and Manisha Dhawan in April 2021. TCF builds on their legacy of impactful philanthropy, including the founding of transformative institutions like Ashoka University and the Central Square Foundation.

Our mission is clear: to transform the lives of all Indians through rapid, sustained economic growth and inclusive development.

To achieve this, we focus on 3 pillars 1) Direct engines of economic growth that enable job creation, 2) Human capital development through education and employability, and 3) Development Enablers that strengthen the philanthropic ecosystem and improve state capacity.

In each area, TCF works on:

  • Building pioneering institutions to address India's most complex socio-economic challenges.
  • Shaping the larger ecosystem and sharing knowledge, insights and learning with other philanthropists, governments and key stakeholders

We believe that the government is the key actor for system change, and the role of philanthropy and nonprofits is to strategically support the government. The TCF Network includes 20+ organisations all working systemically with the government, committed to addressing specific areas of India's socio-economic development, across our three pillars.

Job Description:

We are seeking a driven, entrepreneurial professional to join the Human Capital Development (HCD) vertical at The Convergence Foundation (TCF). This role offers the opportunity to shape high-impact initiatives at the intersection of skilling and employability in India. The Program Manager will work across key strategic priorities, including conceptualizing a $1 billion Skilling Collective, scaling the Apprenticeship Embedded Degree Program (AEDP), and strengthening school-to-work transitions within secondary education and post school pathways.

The role spans institution building and research, leading work on themes such as AI in skilling and digital credentialing, while identifying and developing white spaces in employability-linked education. It is a unique blend of zero to one venture creation, rigorous strategy development, and on-ground ecosystem engagement.

The ideal candidate will be someone who can move seamlessly from structured problem-solving and senior stakeholder engagement to field immersion and implementation design

Key Responsibilities:

  • Support with the build-out of a $1 billion Skilling Collective, including strategy, operating model and ecosystem partnerships
  • Shape and scale the Apprenticeship Embedded Degree Program (AEDP) through building a strategic roadmap, identifying the right states and partners
  • Identify and incubate high-impact white spaces in secondary education and overall skilling ecosystem
  • Lead research and partnerships on AI in skilling, digital credentialing, and future-of-work transitions. Convert insights into executable strategy and pilots
  • Engage senior stakeholders across government, academia, industry and philanthropy to build alignment and unlock scale
  • Ground strategy in field realities through on-site visits, grassroots insights and ecosystem consultations

Ideal Candidate Profile :

  • Around 1-3 years of experience in consulting and research
  • First principles and methodological thinking, with a bias for structured problem solving
  • Ability to manage stakeholder relationships
  • Willingness to travel as needed
  • Independent operator with a passion for skilling and creating impact at scale

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
