Job Description

Urban Forestry & Landscape Management is looking for an experienced Lead Budget Management (Landscape Parks & Green Spaces Manager (Ops) to take ownership of the Budget Management (Landscape Projects) - Operations & Execution charter at a senior level. This is a role for someone who has already operated at scale and is comfortable setting direction rather than simply following one.

The successful candidate will bring approximately 15 years of progressively senior experience, holding B.Tech (Landscape Architecture), with a demonstrated track record across GIS for Urban Forestry, Green Space Maintenance, Regulatory Compliance (Forestry/Municipal), Irrigation System Design, Landscape Design & Planning. Beyond individual capability, this role expects the person to mentor junior team members and represent the function in cross-departmental discussions.

Reporting relationships will be defined based on the final scope agreed at offer stage, and the role is based out of Coimbatore on a full-time arrangement. Compensation is benchmarked at INR 24.5-58.8 LPA, reflecting the seniority and scope of the position.

Success in this role will be measured less by task completion and more by the quality of judgement applied to ambiguous, high-stakes situations within budget management (landscape projects) - operations & execution.

Interested candidates should be prepared to walk through relevant past work during the interview process. A typical day starts with reviewing priority tasks and syncing with the immediate team before moving into focused execution work. Learning and certification support is available for tools and frameworks directly relevant to the role.

The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. Benefits include health insurance, provident fund contributions, and paid leave in line with company policy. The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function.

Cross-functional exposure is built into the role by design, so the person will regularly interact with adjacent teams and leadership. The organisation places a premium on ownership; once a task is assigned, the expectation is to see it through without hand-holding.

References may be requested closer to the offer stage rather than at the start of the process. Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth.

Leave policy follows standard industry norms, including earned leave, sick leave, and public holidays as applicable. No two days look identical - some are heavy on execution, others are spent largely in planning and cross-team discussions.

There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls. Applications without a clear summary of relevant experience are less likely to be shortlisted for the first round.
