About Source

Source is India’s Leading Industrial Materials Platform. We are redefining how raw materials move across the economy, with a massive footprint in Plastics, Paints, Paper, and Building Materials. Operating across Virgin Commodities, Recyclables, and Market Intelligence, we sit squarely at the intersection of Tech, Data, and Network. Already the largest materials distribution company in the Plastics sector with ₹3000cr+ in Annual Revenues, we are aggressively scaling to grow 6x and take the leading position across all our industries.

The Hook

We are taking a massive, traditional industry and forcing it into the digital age. As we scale toward 6x growth, our platforms, chats, and calls are generating an ocean of fragmented supply chain data. We need a high-growth mindset individual to sit directly alongside the Founders and act as our analytical engine. Your mandate is simple but difficult: bring order to the chaos and turn raw operational data into monetizable insights that dictate our strategy.
