  • 4. Drive Outcomes with Precision

  • Track placement metrics, analyze performance data, and ensure we deliver exceptional outcomes (placement rates, avg salary growth, interview conversions).
  • Continuously improve processes so that Mesa is known for speed, quality, and professionalism in hiring partnerships.
  • What We’re Looking For

  • Startup Ecosystem Credibility : Experience in talent acquisition, employer partnerships, B2B sales to founders / operators, or deep networks in the startup ecosystem.
  • Relationship Builder : Strong ability to engage senior stakeholders (founders, HR heads, CXOs) and create win-win partnerships.
  • Ecosystem Evangelist : Energy and presence to host events, panels, and networking sessions that excite and inspire.
  • Excellent Communicator : Sharp written and verbal communication skills; comfortable representing Mesa externally.
  • Outcome-Oriented : Track record of managing partnerships, communities, or programs with measurable success.
  • Why Join Us

  • Work directly with India’s most exciting founders, operators, and investors.
  • Your work directly shapes student careers and Mesa’s brand in the ecosystem.
  • Be part of a bold, fast-scaling institution that is reimagining business education for startups.
  • This is a front-facing, high-ownership role with significant leadership opportunities as Mesa scales.
