Job Description
The organisation is seeking a qualified Director of Documentation & Records Senior Planner (Client Relations) to support ongoing initiatives in Documentation & Records Management - Client & Stakeholder Management. This is a senior level opening based out of Kochi, offered on a leadership - full-time basis.
The ideal candidate holds M.Plan (Urban Planning) and brings roughly 14 years of hands-on exposure to documentation & records management - client & stakeholder management. Day-to-day, the work draws heavily on GIS Mapping (Zoning), Zoning Regulations & Land Use Codes, Records Management, Documentation & Records Management, and the person will be expected to apply these skills independently rather than under constant supervision.
Compensation for this position is structured around INR 30.5-48.8 LPA, in line with market standards for senior level roles within zoning & land use administration.
Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role. Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable.
There is a defined internal mobility path for people who want to specialise deeper or move into people management. Disagreement on approach is expected and welcomed, provided it's backed by reasoning rather than preference alone.
Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership. Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here.
New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables. The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions.
Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round. Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done.
Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week. References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process.
In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments. The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings.
High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months. Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability.
Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay. Skip-level conversations with senior leadership are encouraged at least twice a year to discuss career direction.
Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band. The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding.
This role offers a genuine opportunity to build depth in Documentation & Records Management - Client & Stakeholder Management while working alongside an experienced team.
