Job Description
**Director of Stakeholder & Developer Head of Zoning & Planning (Ops)** | Pune | Full-time | INR 27.1-50.8 LPA
**About the role:**
- Position within Stakeholder & Developer Liaison - Operations & Execution, under the Zoning & Land Use Administration vertical
- Level: senior level
- Reports to the functional head for Stakeholder & Developer Liaison - Operations & Execution
**What you'll do:**
- Handle core stakeholder & developer liaison - operations & execution activities on a day-to-day basis
- Use Stakeholder regularly as part of core deliverables
- Work closely with adjacent teams to align priorities
- Track progress against agreed timelines and escalate issues proactively
**What you'll need:**
- Stakeholder
- Regulatory Compliance (Municipal Codes)
- Permit Processing
- Developer Liaison
- Operations
- Public Hearing Coordination
- B.A (Public Administration)
- 10+ years of relevant experience
**Good to know:**
- The hiring process typically includes a screening round, a technical or functional assessment, and a final discussion with the reporting manager. The package is structured with a fixed component, performance bonus, and standard health coverage. References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process.
- The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding. In addition to fixed pay, the role carries eligibility for annual appraisals and merit-based increments. Candidates are encouraged to highlight measurable outcomes from previous roles rather than just responsibilities held.
- Performance is reviewed on a structured cycle, with clear criteria for movement into the next band. Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable.
- Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role. The organisation has historically promoted from within for a majority of its senior and lead openings.
- No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions. The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth.
- Most days include at least one review checkpoint where progress is discussed against the plan for the week. Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability.
- Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round. The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns.
- The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function. A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work.
