About the Role:

As part of the Central Strategy & Operations (CS&O) team focused on InMobi Group Strategy you will report into the VP, Strategy & Operations and be part of the CEO’s office. You will work closely with the Founder & CEO (Naveen Tewari) as primary stakeholder.

As part of the CEO’s office – you will support the CEO on their top-of-mind priorities, guide the framing and making of decisions with leadership, and take up the execution of resulting initiatives. You will typically support 2-3 streams, working with the relevant leaders and their units, on topics ranging from – Fundraising, M&A, OKR setup, AOP, New initiatives, investor relationships, branding building strategy & impact, product strategy & development efforts, governance on user metrics & revenue initiatives, cross-company commercial & legal collaboration, incubating 0-to-1 projects, supporting external partnerships, helping articulate vision & strategy and so on.

In this role, you will be based out of Bangalore and this role will provide you a platform to take on leadership / business ownership roles down-the-line – as it will expose you to how a company with multiple businesses works across different domains, helps you gain an end-to-end view of the organization, its priorities and ways of working, as well as visibility and access to leaders in the org. We operate in a work from office setup and encourage everyone to be in office 5 days a week.

What you’ll be doing:

Working on the highest priority areas for InMobi Consumer Platform (ICP) businesses – with ICP leadership (VP/GMs) and their units – supporting identification & framing of problems & opportunities, followed by the solutioning, and also implementation with relevant teams

Typically, you will support 2-3 streams of work / initiatives with high ownership on outcomes – structuring and navigating ambiguity, framing roadmaps & setting up programs, driving execution / governance as PMO, and in some cases as direct owner responsible for execution

Structuring and running a tight, clear process along folks across different teams – for diagnosis, problem solving and/or implementation efforts – typically under the direct sponsorship of a Leadership Team member, or one of the Founders

Design and setup the right structures / mechanisms and metrics to ensure the long-term direction and short-term focus are balanced and prioritized effectively

Supporting the storylining of key messages and building required materials for Founders’ discussions with their leadership as well as external partners or investors

As Central S&O – you will own the annual and quarterly planning and set up the relevant OKRs and metrics across businesses, functions, products and markets to realize the plan

Who you are:

You operate with high ownership and are comfortable with driving outcomes through influence rather than authority. If you get a rush out of solving problems well – getting to the heart of them to find the real reasons and best solutions – then you’ll enjoy the opportunities provided by this role and environment of the Central S&O team. A comfort with context switching when working across multiple projects will also go a long way. Inspiring team members with your drive and tenacity to get the job done will help you in the role and in delivering impact. Experience or comfort in working across time zones, in a fast-paced and fluid environment where ideas and hypotheses can be obsolete within 6 months or less. You enjoy being hands-on and can prioritize ad-hoc tactical asks, alongside strategic initiatives. You derive energy from working with different stakeholders and managing complexity along with an eye for data, detail and driving operational excellence.

What you need to succeed:

4-7 years of experience – with a min. of 4 years working directly with senior leadership

Prior experience in Management Consulting (MBB), Corporate / Growth Strategy, or Chief of Staff roles and Investment Banking would be preferred

An MBA or equivalent business management degree would be a definite plus for this role

Operating with high ownership of solving problems and driving outcomes – AND doing so through influence without formal authority (but with senior leader sponsorship)

Strong problem-solving and solutioning skills. Compelling storytelling skill.

Proven comfort and skill in communication – in-person and writing / slides

Exceptional analytical skills with a high level of comfort with triaging data to identify and diagnose business problems
Comfort with and ability to navigate ambiguity and a baseline level of flux – while structuring and setting up clarity on a continuous level as well
