• Track and report HR dashboards to leadership on a regular cadence

Requirements

• MBA/PGDM in HR or equivalent
• 6–10 years of HRBP experience, with at least 2–3 years handling a pan-India or multi-location remit
• Prior experience in edtech, EdTech-adjacent, retail, or high-growth startup environments preferred
• Strong stakeholder management skills — comfortable engaging with business heads, branch managers, and leadership
• Data-driven approach to HR — comfortable with HR metrics, dashboards, and translating numbers into narrative
• Willingness to travel across locations as needed
• Excellent communication and conflict-resolution skills

What Success Looks Like (First 6 Months)

• Established strong working relationships with business leaders across key regions
• Reduced early-attrition/drop-off rates through targeted interventions
• Streamlined and standardized core HR processes (onboarding, PIP, exits) across locations
• Delivered a functioning pan-India people dashboard reviewed monthly with leadership
