Role Summary : COO / Partner

Adara is building its next-generation leadership team. We’re seeking a Partner / Chief Operating Officer (COO) who will take end-to-end ownership of multiple client and venture projects, drive business development, and strengthen our venture-building operations.

This is a builder’s role , not a managerial one. You will work directly with the founding partners to lead delivery , drive execution , and scale the consulting-plus-venture-building model across sectors. Over time, this role may transition into equity shareholding or partnership within Adara Partners, based on performance and contribution.

You’ll help shape a firm that combines strategic depth with startup agility —a place where you can both advise and build.

Responsibilities

  • Take full ownership of assigned projects—from scoping to delivery and outcomes.
  • Translate strategic recommendations into operational roadmaps and measurable execution.
  • Drive cross-functional coordination between Adara, clients, and external collaborators.
  • Lead and mentor project teams; ensure quality, speed, and accountability.
  • Support business development —prepare proposals, lead client discussions, and strengthen key relationships.
  • Co-lead venture-building initiatives with Adara partners; identify and develop new opportunities in the ecosystem.
  • Oversee internal process excellence, knowledge management, and delivery frameworks.
  • Participate in firm-level leadership discussions and contribute to growth strategy.

Qualifications

  • MBA from a top-tier school (INSEAD, HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, Booth, ISB, IIMs) OR equivalent experience as founder, senior operator, or consulting leader .
  • 8–15 years of experience in consulting, venture building, startups, or investment firms.
  • Proven ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder projects with ownership mindset.
  • Strong strategic thinking, analytical ability, and execution discipline.
  • Entrepreneurial drive—thrives in ambiguity and enjoys building from the ground up.
  • Excellent client relationship management and communication skills.

    • Why Join Adara?

  • Ownership & impact : Lead real projects with autonomy; see your strategy become reality.
  • Equity opportunity : Role structured with a clear path to partnership or equity vesting .
  • Multi-venture exposure : Engage across sectors—from deep tech to consumer ventures.
  • Work with founders : Collaborate directly with Adara’s INSEAD / IIT / IIM partners and CXO-level clients.
  • High-velocity growth : Be part of a firm that is redefining how consulting meets venture creation.
  • Culture of builders : We reward initiative, curiosity, and execution—not hierarchy.

    • Apply if :

    You’re an operator-leader who loves turning strategy into execution, thrives on ownership, and believes in building value—not just advising on it.
