Help Us Build Something Extraordinary
Gausharan is an ambitious new animal-welfare project being established in India.
Our vision is to create an exceptionally large and peaceful sanctuary where cows and other cattle can live safely, with food, shelter, care and permanent protection.
We are looking for a reliable, organised and highly communicative Indian professional to work closely with our international management team and assist with the establishment and administration of the project in India.
This is an early-stage position with an important role in helping us manage the many practical matters that arise when establishing and developing a project in India.
The position does not require relocation to Mumbai or any particular Indian city. The successful candidate may work from their current location, provided they are able to effectively handle the responsibilities of the role and travel when necessary.
What You Will Do
The main focus of this position will be administration, communication and coordination.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Communicating regularly with international management and providing updates on ongoing matters.
- Communicating with Indian companies, professionals, organisations and service providers on behalf of the project.
- Coordinating with accountants, lawyers, Company Secretaries, banks and other professional advisers.
- Assisting with the establishment and administration of the Indian company.
- Helping coordinate company-registration and other administrative procedures.
- Organising and managing documents, applications, correspondence and records.
- Making appointments and coordinating meetings when required.
- Following up with professionals, government offices, companies and service providers.
- Helping international management understand and navigate Indian administrative procedures.
- Handling practical matters locally when they cannot conveniently be handled from overseas.
- Researching information and finding appropriate local services or professionals when requested.
- Keeping track of ongoing tasks and ensuring that important matters are followed through.
- Representing the project professionally when communicating with third parties.
- Travelling within India occasionally when physical presence is required.
A Role Built Around Communication and Trust
This position requires someone who is responsive, dependable and comfortable communicating with many different people.
You may receive a task that is unfamiliar to you. You will not necessarily be expected to know the answer immediately. Instead, you should be comfortable finding the right information, speaking with the appropriate people, asking questions and reporting back clearly to international management.
You will have support from international management and, where appropriate, professional advisers such as accountants, lawyers and Company Secretaries.
You do not need to be an expert in every area of Indian administration. We are looking for someone who can learn, coordinate and get things done reliably.
Who We Are Looking For
The ideal candidate will be:
- Based anywhere in India.
- Fluent in spoken and written English — this is an essential requirement for the position.
- No English-language certificate or formal proof is required; candidates simply need to be able to communicate confidently and effectively in English.
- Highly organised and dependable.
- Comfortable communicating by email, phone and video calls.
- Able to communicate confidently in Hindi and/or another Indian language.
- Comfortable dealing with professionals, businesses and government or administrative offices.
- Good at following up and keeping track of multiple ongoing matters.
- Able to work independently while maintaining regular communication with international management.
- Comfortable handling documents and confidential information.
- Practical, resourceful and willing to find solutions to unfamiliar problems.
- Available for occasional domestic travel when necessary.
Experience
Experience in administration, business operations, management, banking, accounting, company registration, legal coordination, project coordination, executive assistance or a similar field would be helpful.
However, experience in every area is absolutely not required.
The most important qualities are:
Reliability Communication Organisation Initiative Professionalism Willingness to Learn
Experience working with an international company or overseas management would be an advantage, but is not essential.
Compensation & Long-Term Opportunity
The position offers ₹145,000–₹240,000 per month, depending on experience and qualifications.
In addition to the regular compensation, there will be opportunities for performance-based bonuses based on the individual's contribution and the development of the project.
Because Gausharan is being established at an early stage, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to grow with the project and potentially become an important long-term member of the organisation.
As the project develops, there may also be opportunities for additional participation in the project's future success, depending on the candidate's role, contribution and the structure established by the organisation.
This is intended to be more than a conventional administrative position. We are looking for someone who can become a trusted and long-term part of Gausharan's development in India.
What We Offer
- ₹145,000–₹240,000 per month, depending on experience and qualifications.
- Performance-based bonus opportunities.
- Potential for long-term participation in the project's future development.
- Flexible location anywhere in India.
- Approved work-related travel expenses covered separately.
- Training and professional support.
- Direct involvement in building Gausharan from its earliest stage.
- Regular interaction with international management.
- A varied position with significant responsibility.
- Long-term growth opportunities as the project develops.
