Programme Manager — Product & Programme Development

Location: Remote (India)

Role Summary It is responsible for converting programme components that currently exist as ideas, one-off interventions, or informal practice into structured, repeatable, scalable products — with defined scope, playbooks, and delivery formats that any Venture Partner or Sprint Operator across hubs can pick up and run consistently.

Key Responsibilities

  • Create playbooks for each sprint type so delivery quality doesn't depend on which Sprint Operator runs it
  • Design and productize the SMB Community and peer network model (Peer Circles, Hub Chapters) into a defined, repeatable format
  • Design the Alumni Engagement pathway — structure for repeat sprints and a paid conversion model for ventures exiting the core programme
  • Build out Sector Focus Sprints as standalone products, examples:

‑       Defence Manufacturing — DPP compliance, OEM connect

‑       Food & Agro — export certification, retail entry

‑       EV & Clean Tech — OEM partnerships, subsidy navigation

  • Take other ad hoc or one-off interventions run across hubs and convert them into standardized, reusable products (clear scope, inputs, outputs, effort)
  • Bring an analytical lens to product design — sizing demand, structuring frameworks, validating assumptions before building
  • Build and maintain a network of external service providers relevant to sector sprints (compliance consultants, certification bodies, OEM connectors, etc.)
  • Apply consulting-style structured problem solving to genuinely ambiguous, undefined areas of the programme

Requirements

  • Background in management consulting, or a Chartered Accountant with strong exposure to business problem-solving
  • Strong grounding in management consulting problem-solving frameworks (structuring, hypothesis-driven analysis, MECE-style breakdowns) — hands-on sector experience is not required, ability to apply frameworks to a new sector is what matters
  • Demonstrated experience building frameworks, playbooks, or productized service offerings — not just executing against someone else's brief
  • Strong analytical and structuring ability; comfortable working from ambiguity to a defined product
  • Existing or buildable network of relevant service providers/experts, able to work independently in a remote, build-from-scratch capacity
