Role Details

Designation: Senior Operations Associate

Location: Mumbai (office-based)

Qualifications

Essential

  • 4–8 years of experience in an operations, coordination, or HR administration role — for example, operations associate, HR operations associate, process associate, or equivalent.
  • Bachelor's degree required.
  • Strong organisational ability and follow-through, with a demonstrated capacity to manage multiple workstreams and bring tasks to closure.
  • Proficiency with checklists, trackers, and calendars, and in coordinating across multiple stakeholders to achieve outcomes.
  • Clear written and verbal communication, with a proactive and dependable working style.

Desirable

  • MBA (HR, Operations, or General Management), M.Com, or an equivalent master's degree.
  • Experience in a non-profit, philanthropic, or research/consulting environment.
  • Exposure to HR operations, vendor coordination, or working alongside external CA, CS, or legal partners (beneficial, though it can be developed on the job).
  • Experience supporting senior leadership or managing executive calendars.

Role Overview

This is a hands-on coordination and operations role. The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring that activities are completed on time across people processes, day-to-day operations, leadership support, and coordination with external partners. Subject-matter expertise in any single area is not a prerequisite; the role calls for strong organisation, reliability, and ownership of follow-through. The organisation will provide the structure and processes; the candidate will be expected to deliver consistent execution.

Roles and Responsibilities

People processes and HR operations

  • Administer established HR processes on a day-to-day basis such as leave records, trackers, and renewals in line with the policies and playbook already in place.
  • Coordinate onboarding and offboarding, and maintain employee records, contracts, and documentation in an organised and updated state.
  • Coordinate payroll and reimbursement inputs with the finance team, to ensure accurate and timely disbursement.
  • Serve as the first point of contact for routine administrative queries.

Coordination for legal and compliance adherence

  • Maintain the compliance calendar of statutory filings and compliances ITRI is required to adhere to
  • Coordinate with external CA, CS, and legal partners to ensure that filings and statutory obligations are completed on schedule. The role is responsible for coordination and follow-up, and does not require undertaking filings directly
  • Maintain an organised record of agreements and documentation including vendor agreements, MoUs, grant documents, and renewals and flag upcoming actions in advance.
  • Act as the internal point of contact for tracking open items across partners, escalating to leadership where attention is required.

Leadership support and operations

  • Manage calendars, scheduling, and travel arrangements for senior leadership, and support the smooth running of meetings
  • Coordinate logistics for internal and external meetings.
  • Support day-to-day operations, including vendor coordination, procurement, and office management.
  • Support leadership in following through on priorities, meetings, and stakeholder communication.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

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.
