Job Description
Zoning & Land Use Administration is looking for an experienced Lead Stakeholder & Developer Head of Zoning & Planning to take ownership of the Stakeholder & Developer Liaison - Fundamentals 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 M.Plan (Urban Planning), with a demonstrated track record across Zoning Regulations & Land Use Codes, Developer Liaison, Permit Processing, Master Plan Implementation Support, Regulatory Compliance (Municipal Codes). 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 Pune on a leadership - full-time arrangement. Compensation is benchmarked at INR 23.3-48.2 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 stakeholder & developer liaison - fundamentals.
Skip-level conversations with senior leadership are encouraged at least twice a year to discuss career direction. Relocation assistance may be extended for candidates moving from a different city, subject to approval.
The role alternates between independent deep work and short coordination huddles with stakeholders across functions. There's usually a block of uninterrupted time set aside for focused work, separate from meetings and coordination calls.
Internal job postings are open to employees who've completed a minimum tenure in their current role. Expect a mix of scheduled reviews, ad-hoc troubleshooting, and documentation as the workload shifts through the week.
The environment rewards initiative - people who flag problems early and propose fixes tend to grow faster here. 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.
Compensation includes standard statutory benefits along with performance-linked variable pay. The next logical step from this position is a senior or lead-track role within the same function.
Shortlisted applicants will be evaluated on both domain knowledge and practical problem-solving ability. The team follows a flat structure where ideas are evaluated on merit rather than hierarchy, and feedback flows in both directions.
Work culture here leans collaborative, with regular knowledge-sharing sessions and an open-door policy for raising concerns. Priorities can shift mid-week depending on business needs, so adaptability matters as much as technical depth. Managers here tend to give context rather than instructions, leaving room for the individual to decide how a task gets done.
