Job Description
We're hiring a Director of Feeding & Nutrition Zookeeper (QA) to join our growing Feeding & Nutrition Programmes - Quality & Compliance team - if this sounds like your kind of work, read on.
You'll be working out of Nagpur (full-time), and honestly, the day-to-day is going to revolve around Quality and Enclosure Enrichment Planning. We're not looking for someone who just ticks boxes - we want someone who actually cares about feeding & nutrition programmes - quality & compliance.
On paper, we'd expect B.V.Sc & A.H and somewhere around 15 years of experience, but we're just as interested in how you think as in what's on your resume.
Pay-wise, we're offering INR 18.7-37.7 LPA - fair for the senior level band and open to discussion based on what you bring.
New joiners typically get a short structured onboarding before being handed independent ownership of their first deliverables. Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership.
There is a defined internal mobility path for people who want to specialise deeper or move into people management. No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions. Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy.
The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work. Disagreement on approach is expected and welcomed, provided it's backed by reasoning rather than preference alone.
Most days include at least one review checkpoint where progress is discussed against the plan for the week. Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage.
The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. Mornings are usually spent on planning and status reviews, while the rest of the day is given over to hands-on delivery and problem-solving.
Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band. Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role.
Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions. The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function.
In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments. Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round. There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls.
Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay. The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager.
References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process. Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held. High performers in this role typically move into a broader ownership scope within 18-24 months.
