  • Proactive Vetting : Advise on preventive measures in hiring (e.g., background verification protocols, contractual clauses) for field staff, service partners, and vendors to mitigate fraud and misconduct risk.
  • Expansion Advisory : Provide immediate legal consultation on regulatory risks and compliance requirements during the launch of new business verticals and expansion projects .
  • 3. Operational Integration

  • Hyper-local Strategy : Leverage experience or knowledge from large hyper-local or marketplace models (e.g., Zomato, Swiggy, Urban Company, Ola / Uber ) to design scalable grievance systems that match Hoora's speed and operational complexity.
  • Reporting : Maintain detailed documentation of all grievance patterns and outcomes, translating recurring issues into actionable policy changes for the leadership team.
  • Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Legal Qualification (Mandatory) : Must possess a formal LLM and LLB degree .
  • Specialization (Mandatory) : Specialized experience or demonstrated expertise in Criminal Law is essential for managing high-risk operational disputes.

  • Hyper-local Acumen : Experience or clear understanding of the operational risks and grievance patterns typical of hyper-local, logistics, or on-demand service platforms.
  • Resolution Focus : Proven track record in successfully mediating, negotiating, and achieving pre-litigation settlement and resolution of complex disputes.
