Role Overview
We are looking for a thoughtful and driven professional to join the Talent Management team as Assistant Manager. The role partners with Senior Managers and Directors across functions and geographies, contributing to the design and delivery of talent programs that have a direct bearing on how the organization grows and how people experience their careers at Darwinbox.

They will own programs end to end, work across HR and business stakeholders, and are expected to bring a point of view to the table, not just execution capability.
The role involves travel as part of program delivery and stakeholder engagement. A good fit is someone who is observant, picks up on what needs attention before it is flagged, and follows through with a well-considered response.

Partner with Senior Managers and Directors across functions and geographies on the design and delivery of talent programs.

Coordinate with HR Operations, Talent Acquisition, and Rewards to ensure the process is integrated, coherent, and well communicated across the organization.

Learning and Development
Identify capability and learning needs across teams and design interventions that are relevant, practical, and connected to where the organization is headed.
Deliver learning programs that go beyond content delivery, ensuring they translate into how people work and grow.
Partner with business managers to build a culture where development is treated as ongoing and embedded in day to day work, not limited to formal programs.
Employee Experience And Culture
Design and deliver programs that sustain the culture Darwinbox is known for, one of openness, camaraderie, and a genuine orientation toward growth.
Work on employee experience initiatives that are thoughtful and contextually relevant across a diverse, multi-geography workforce.
Stay connected to how employees experience the organization at different stages of their journey and bring those insights into program design.
Cross-functional Coordination
Work closely with HR Operations, Talent Acquisition, and Rewards as an ongoing partner to ensure that talent programs are backed by the right processes and data.
Coordinate across HR and business teams on shared initiatives, acting as a reliable and well-informed point of connection.

Read situations across programs and stakeholder interactions and proactively flag what needs attention, along with a suggested course of action.
Support Senior Managers and Directors in identifying patterns across data, feedback, and program outcomes that can inform how talent strategy evolves.
Data and Reporting
Maintain program trackers and reports that give a clear picture of status, participation, and outcomes.
