Job description

A fast-growing group of businesses in Telangana is hiring an Executive Assistant to work side by side with its Founder & CEO. This is a front-row seat to something big: you travel with the founder across India and internationally, and see every deal, launch and decision up close.

Role snapshot

Role: Executive Assistant to the Founder & CEO (business and personal)

Engagement: Full-time, permanent

Location: Hanamkonda (Warangal) and Hyderabad hybrid, with travel across India and internationally as needed

Reports to: Founder & CEO

Experience: 2-4 years in any role; freshers welcome, experienced candidates preferred

Salary: Based on experience

About us

We are a fast-growing group of businesses based in Telangana, and we are just getting started. Our work spans HVAC services and manufacturing, home-comfort retail, life-sciences consulting for clients in the US and India, and new ventures in agri-tourism and urban farming.

The founder spent over 15 years leading global quality and compliance for medical-device companies in the US, holds an Executive MBA from MIT , and came home to Telangana to build. You will hear the full story, and meet the businesses by name, at interview.

Purpose of the role

You will run the office of the Founder & CEO across every business. You will protect his time, make sure nothing he commits to slips, and keep him moving between offices, sites, cities and countries. Within 90 days, you should own his calendar, follow-ups and travel end to end, so he spends his time on decisions, customers and growth.

Key responsibilities

CEO office and calendar

• Own one calendar across all the businesses; set the day's priorities each morning and keep a weekly review of what moved and what is stuck.
• Screen requests, calls and meetings, and protect time for the work that matters most.
• Take notes in meetings, turn them into actions with owners and dates, and chase them to closure with the team, vendors, contractors and clients.

Communication and social media

• Draft emails, letters and WhatsApp messages in clear English and Hindi.
• Represent the CEO with customers, suppliers, banks and government offices when he asks you to.
• Run the CEO's and the businesses' social media pages and handles: plan posts, publish them, reply to messages and keep each page active.

Documents and business admin

• Build presentations, reports, proposals and meeting briefs.
• Keep files, contracts, licences and renewal dates organised so anything can be found in two minutes.
• Track invoices and payments with the accounts team, coordinate vendors, and support hiring and onboarding.

Travel and special projects

• Plan trips and site days, then travel with the CEO to stores, project sites, client meetings and bank meetings, across India and internationally as needed.
• Run special projects: store openings, launches, investor and lender meetings, and events.

Personal support

• Manage personal appointments, bookings and family logistics when needed, so the CEO can focus on the businesses.

Must-have

• Fluent spoken and written English and Hindi (fluent English is non-negotiable).
• A college degree in any discipline.
• 24 years of work experience in any role; it does not have to be as an assistant. Freshers are welcome to apply, but we will give preference to candidates with experience.
• Strong communication skills, in person, on the phone and in writing.
• Strong organisational skills: you keep track of many things at once and nothing slips.
• Good computer skills, especially MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
• Experience managing social media pages and handles.
• Proven discretion with confidential information.
• Ready to travel with the CEO on an as-needed basis, within India and internationally; a valid passport, or willing to get one.

Nice-to-have

• Telugu fluency
• Comfort with Google Workspace, Canva and AI tools such as ChatGPT or Claude.

Nice-to-have

• Exposure to retail, manufacturing, healthcare or a startup.
• Experience organizing events or launches.
• A valid driving license.

What we offer

• A front-row seat. Work side by side with the founder and sit in the room where decisions get made.
• Travel. Road trips across Telangana, cities across India and international trips with the CEO, all costs on the company.
• Every day is different. A bank meeting in Hyderabad one day, a site visit near Warangal the next, a call with a client in the US after that.
• Learning you can't get elsewhere. Retail, services, manufacturing, consulting and new ventures, all at once.
• Growth. A direct path into the Founder's Office, Chief of Staff or business operations as the group grows.
• Competitive salary, based on experience.
