Business & Management

Operations Manager

Operations Managers run the day-to-day execution engine of a company — they own how work flows, how teams hit targets, and how cost, quality and SLA stay in balance. They design processes, build dashboards, run weekly business reviews, fix broken handoffs between teams, and manage the people closest to the actual work. In Indian startups, the Ops Manager is often the second or third hire after the founders — running supply, fulfilment, customer support, and city-level launch playbooks at companies like Swiggy, Dunzo, Zomato, BlueStone, Lenskart and Urban Company. In larger corporates (Reliance, Tata, ITC, HUL) the role sits closer to plant ops, manufacturing excellence, or shared-services delivery. Distinct from Project Managers (who own a single deliverable on a timeline) and from General Managers (who own the full P&L) — an Ops Manager owns the recurring machinery of how the business actually gets work done.

Finance

Accountant

Accountants in India keep the financial books for SMEs, listed companies, Big-4 audit firms (Deloitte, PwC, EY, KPMG), and Indian audit houses like SR Batliboi, BSR & Co, and Walker Chandiok. Day to day means GST returns, TDS reconciliation, statutory audits under the Companies Act 2013, IndAS financial-statement preparation, bank reconciliations, and Tally/Zoho Books/SAP entries. The typical entry path is B.Com (Hons) plus CA Inter or full CA from ICAI; commerce graduates with CMA, ACCA, or CPA also work in MNC shared-service centres in Bengaluru, Pune, Gurugram, and Hyderabad. Entry-level roles begin at audit articleship under a Chartered Accountant or as a junior accountant at SMEs, growing into senior accountant, manager-finance, and controller positions across manufacturing, IT services, BFSI, and DTC startups.

Data Analyst

Data Analysts turn raw business data into decisions. The day-to-day work spans writing SQL on a warehouse to answer specific business questions, building Tableau / Power BI / Looker dashboards that PMs and ops teams actually use, sizing a problem with quick exploratory analysis, running A/B test reads, and translating findings into 1-page memos that non-technical stakeholders can act on. In India, Data Analyst is the most common 'first analytics job' for graduates from B.Tech, BCA, B.Com, and BBA backgrounds — it sits at TCS, Accenture, Cognizant, EY-Parthenon, ZS Associates, Mu Sigma, and Tiger Analytics for the services side, and at every product unicorn (Flipkart, Swiggy, Razorpay, Cred, PhonePe, Meesho), fintech, and D2C brand on the product side.

Business Analyst (Finance)

Business Analysts in financial services are the bridge between business stakeholders and technology / operations teams — they gather requirements, document AS-IS and TO-BE processes, write functional specifications, run UAT, and drive change-management for projects ranging from core-banking upgrades to RBI / SEBI compliance rollouts to GST automation and digital-onboarding programmes. Distinct from a Data Analyst (who works with numbers and dashboards), the Business Analyst is process-led: they sit in workshops, run JAD sessions, write BRDs and FRDs, and shepherd projects through approval gates. In India this role is concentrated at the BFSI verticals of TCS, Infosys (Finacle, Finacle Digital), Wipro, Cognizant, Capgemini, Tech Mahindra, and at the Big-4 advisory practices (Deloitte, EY, KPMG, PwC) — supporting projects at HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, SBI, Axis Bank, NSE, BSE, depositories, AMCs, and global banks' India captives. The career ladder runs Associate BA → BA → Senior BA → Lead / Principal BA → Practice Head / Engagement Manager.

Marketing & SalesNew

Customer Success Manager

Customer Success Managers (CSMs) own the post-sale relationship at B2B SaaS companies — onboarding new customers, driving feature adoption, hitting renewal targets, and surfacing expansion opportunities that the AE or Account Manager closes. The role sits between the customer's day-to-day users and their economic buyer, and is measured on three numbers: gross revenue retention (GRR), net revenue retention (NRR), and customer health score. A CSM typically owns a book of 25-80 mid-market accounts (or 5-15 enterprise accounts) worth $2M-$15M ARR and runs a quarterly business review with each one. Day-to-day work splits between onboarding kickoffs, training sessions, escalation calls when something breaks, expansion pitches when usage is hot, and renewal conversations 90 days before contract end. In India this is one of the fastest-growing post-sale tracks at Postman, Atlassian-IN, Razorpay, Zoho, Freshworks, Browserstack, and Chargebee — most CSM hiring is for the international book (US, EMEA, APAC) where compensation is meaningfully higher than India-domestic-only CSM roles. The role suits people who are organised, genuinely enjoy long-running relationships, and can hold a hard conversation about churn risk without flinching.
