Job description

The CEO must be a dynamic and principled leader with deep expertise in rural lending and financial inclusion. The role demands not only sound financial acumen and operational discipline but also a progressive vision to strengthen traditional JLG / SHG models and explore diversified, sustainable business lines such as gold loans and affordable housing finance — ensuring both profitability and purpose-driven growth

  • Ensure full compliance with RBI NBFC-MFI norms and guidelines
  • Lead business expansion across India.
  • Monitor credit portfolio, NPAs, and operational risks
  • Forge partnerships with banks, fintechs, BCs, SHG federations, and donor agencies
  • Represent the company in industry forums, regulatory bodies (RBI, MFIN, Sa-Dhan), and with investors
  • Develop diversified financial products and alternative lending verticals aligned with the company’s social and financial goals

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  • Year-over-year loan portfolio growth and branch network expansion
  • Portfolio at Risk (PAR) and NPA ratios within acceptable thresholds
  • Operating efficiency (OPEX to loan portfolio ratio)
  • Customer satisfaction and social impact metrics
  • Digital adoption rates and turnaround time improvements
  • Employee engagement and leadership pipeline development
  • Compliance audit scores and regulatory review outcomes
  • Key Skills & Expertise

  • 15+ years of experience in the microfinance sector, with at least 5 years in executive leadership, including :
  • Leading microfinance operations across multiple states
  • Designing and implementing JLG / SHG lending models
  • Overseeing portfolio quality and recovery strategies
  • Handling rural banking and priority sector lending
  • Developing agent-based models and rural outreach frameworks
  • Proven success in NBFC-MFI operations (especially in rural / semi-urban markets)
  • Deep understanding of microfinance regulatory, credit, and risk governance
  • Strong understanding of the past and present JLG / SHG models, and clear foresight into future microfinance business models based on current trends and evolving financial inclusion ecosystems.
  • Ability to identify, evaluate, and develop safe and sound alternative business models alongside the core MFI-SHG-JLG framework — such as Gold Loans, Affordable Housing Finance, and Mortgage Loans — to ensure sustainable growth and diversification.
  • MBA / CA / PGDM from a leading institution preferred.
