Qualifications and experience

Freshers and early career candidates with 0–1 year of experience

MBA with a specialization in Human Resources is mandatory. Prior experience in Skills Development or HR is not required; candidates with unrelated prior work experience may also be considered within this experience range.

Demonstrated interest in employee development, supported by curiosity, initiative, and willingness to learn the fundamentals of Skills Development.

Evidence of communication, organization, teamwork, or problem-solving through academic projects, internships, campus responsibilities, volunteering, or other work.

Initial expectation: Execute assigned activities with guidance, maintain reliable records, and progressively take ownership of defined tasks and stakeholder follow-ups.

Experienced candidates with 2–3 years of experience

MBA is mandatory; specialization in Human Resources is preferred.

Relevant experience in Skills Development or an HR business partnering capacity is required.

Practical experience coordinating initiatives, working with business or HR stakeholders, maintaining data, and delivering agreed activities within timelines.

For candidates from Skills Development, exposure to program delivery, learning operations, content support, or evaluation is relevant. For HRBP candidates, exposure to learning needs, employee development plans, performance development, or capability initiatives is desirable.

Initial expectation: Independently manage defined programs or workstreams, anticipate routine delivery issues, and use data and feedback to improve execution, with guidance on design and complex stakeholder requirements.

Core skills and capabilities

Communication: Write clear emails and learning communications, prepare structured presentations, and interact confidently with employees and stakeholders.

Organization and ownership: Manage concurrent activities, prioritize deadlines, check details, and follow through on commitments.

Collaboration: Build effective working relationships, respond constructively to feedback, and coordinate across teams.

Data literacy: Maintain accurate trackers, interpret basic metrics, and translate findings into practical observations and actions.

Digital proficiency: Working knowledge of Excel and PowerPoint, comfort with virtual collaboration tools, and ability to learn new systems. Experienced candidates should demonstrate practical use in their previous roles.

Learning agility and judgment: Ask useful questions, understand the purpose behind requests, identify improvements, and escalate issues appropriately.

Desirable exposure

Experience with learning management systems, content curation, facilitation, surveys, Excel reporting, or digital learning tools is an advantage. Familiarity with AI tools for drafting, research, or administrative productivity is useful, with appropriate accuracy checks and adherence to company data policies. These are additional strengths, not prerequisites for freshers.

What success looks like

Programs run to agreed timelines with clear communications and reliable coordination. Learning records and reports are accurate and timely. Learner queries and stakeholder actions are followed through. Feedback and assessment data inform practical improvements, and ownership grows in line with experience and demonstrated capability.
