Economist & Market Commentator — Office of the CEO
Reports to: CEO (dotted line to Head of Brand & Communications)
Location: Pune
Experience: 4–8 years
Type: Full time

The role
You will be the economic mind and writing voice behind the CEO's public presence — primarily on X, with extensions to LinkedIn and long-form content. This is not a social media management job. You will form independent views on markets and macro and translate them into commentary sharp enough that market participants stop scrolling.
The CEO's account is a credibility asset for the firm. You are its custodian.

What you'll do
Think first
· Track macro releases (CPI, IIP, GDP, trade data), RBI policy, global central bank action, and their transmission into Indian equity and rate markets
· Build a running point of view on market structure — FII/DII flows, derivatives positioning, sectoral rotation, primary market activity
· Generate the content agenda rather than react to it: identify what will matter in two weeks, not what trended yesterday

Write




· Daily and event-driven posts in the CEO's voice — Budget day, MPC day, results season, volatility events, regulatory shifts
· Long-form threads and commentaries (800–2,000 words) on subjects with genuine depth: SEBI's F&O; reforms, retail participation trends, market microstructure changes, valuation debates
· Op-eds and bylined columns for financial publications
· Talking points and speech notes for TV appearances, panels and earnings calls

Publish and engage
· Own the posting calendar and cadence; know when to post and when to hold
· Manage rapid-response during market events — a considered take within the hour, not the day
· Navigate the fintwit ecosystem: know who matters, when to engage, when to stay out

What you need
Non-negotiable
· NISM Series XV (Research Analyst) certification, valid and current
· Master's in Economics, Finance or equivalent
· 4+ years in macro research, economics, market strategy or financial journalism
· A public writi
