  • Lead digital enablement initiatives – ERP integration, data visibility dashboards, and analytics-driven decisions.

Project Management

  • Establish and run Project Management Office (PMO) systems with clear milestones, risk registers, and change controls.
  • Coordinate multi-location teams (India & UAE) to ensure on-time, within-budget delivery of transformation and capex projects.
  • Prepare executive dashboards and Board-level reviews on project health, risks, and performance impact.
  • Drive cross-functional governance reviews to ensure decisions convert into results on ground.

    • Qualifications & Experience

  • Education : B.Tech / B.E. from IIT or equivalent + MBA from IIM / ISB or other top-tier B-school.
  • Experience : 4+ years overall, including :
  • 3 years in management consulting (Mandatory).
  • Experience in project management or large-scale implementation (PMP / PRINCE2 certification preferred).
  • Exposure to manufacturing or heavy industries (cement, metals, alumina, or process industries).
  • Experience in multi-country project execution (especially Middle East) will be an advantage.

  • Project Planning & Execution
  • Stakeholder & Vendor Management
  • Lean / Six Sigma / TPM Implementation
  • PMO Systems & Governance Frameworks
  • Financial Modeling & ROI Tracking
