· Track report submission flow between partners, auditors, and internal teams, ensuring basic compliance with required formats and timelines.

· Manage timelines across multiple partner accounts simultaneously, proactively flagging delays before they become issues.

· Coordinate surveillance and recertification schedules, and support scope extension or certification change requests.

· Liaise with internal teams for contract review, quotation support, and certification cycle planning.

· Maintain accurate records in the CB management system / CRM for tracking partner status and history.

· Support nonconformity follow-up coordination and closure verification tracking (administrative, not technical review).





· Prepare basic MIS/status reports and dashboards in Excel for management visibility.

· Handle day-to-day customer communication with a strong focus on responsiveness and professionalism.

Must-Have Skills

· Excellent verbal and written communication skills, this is the single most important requirement.

· Strong client / partner relationship management ability.

· Sharp time management, able to juggle multiple partner accounts and deadlines without dropping the ball.

· Basic working knowledge of ISO management system standards (e.g., ISO 9001) and how certification reports should be submitted.

· Comfortable with Microsoft Excel, Word, and CRM / DMS tools for tracking and reporting.

· Well organized, proactive, and able to work independently from the Ahmedabad office.

Good-to-Have Skills

· Prior exposure to a certification body, audit firm, or compliance-driven service business.

· Familiarity with IAF Mandatory Documents or accreditation body requirements.

· Experience with certification management software or a similar CB/CRM platform.

· Basic understanding of CAPA / nonconformity handling processes.

· Exposure to process improvement or Lean/Six Sigma fundamentals.

Ideal Candidate Profile

· 4–5 years of experience in client relationship management, business coordination, or operations - certification/compliance industry background is a plus but not mandatory.

· Someone who enjoys owning relationships end-to-end and takes accountability for outcomes, not just tasks.

· Comfortable being the primary escalation point for partners and coordinating across internal teams to get things done.
