Director - Brand, Marketing and Advocacy

nAt Udhyam Learning Foundation (Udhyam), our vision is to Co-create a caring world, where people fearlessly pursue their potential.

nWe believe that every individual has immense potential and that being entrepreneurial is a powerful way to channel this potential. Hence, we are on a mission towards Making Bharat Entrepreneurial!
nAn entrepreneurial mindset coupled with actioning enables agency and allows an individual to work on his/her strengths while creating value for the world. It's the simplest & most powerful form of self expression and we believe if unleashed - can help in creating a more equitable, flourishing & happier society.

nUdhyam has the heart of an NGO, the mind of an enterprise and the pace of a startup. Rolled into one, this explains a bit about the kind of organisation (& team) we are. We are committed to the bigger picture of creating work which has lasting value and deep impact. As an organisation, we value the spirit of experimentation, high ownership and collaboration. We are also focused on scale and speed.

nWe have two flagship programs that help us in this journey:

nThe goal for Udhyam is to build a thriving and supportive ecosystem, where every individual feels empowered to define their own path.

nAs a seven year young organization, our focus thus far has been on creating deeply impactful programs and scaling them. In parallel, over the last couple of years we have built some foundational pillars of marketing but need the brand and impact of our work to travel a lot further - Our best supporters call us The Most Impactful Secret.

nWith the work and its impact under our belt, there is significant opportunity to influence a far larger ecosystem, policies and national decision making. Marketing and advocacy will play a critical role in this effort, by amplifying these ideas and programs to percolate far deeper and wider. Thus far, a lot of our brand awareness and inbounds has happened organically. We are now at a stage where we need to be more deliberate in our marketing efforts given our ambitious mission and goals.

nThe marketing and communications team is a small and high impact team. We are zealous about customer centricity and our passion to make a difference is matched with our empathy. In everything we do, we endeavour to pursue excellence. On the days we are in office (we are a hybrid working organisation with a minimum of two days in office currently) it's a rocking party with everyone else joining the laughter and the fun. There is always food (for thought too), loud discussions and roaring conversations. We are on a happy journey to Make Bharat Entrepreneurial through our education and livelihood programs.
