Job DescriptionWe're hiring a Senior Manager – Founder's Office to work directly with the Founder/CEO and the central Centre of Excellence (COE) team at Pepper Content. This role partners closely with our US business and leadership, so you'll be working US hours (5:00 PM – 2:30 AM IST) from our Mumbai office. This is a high-ownership role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, runs hard at problems, and turns founder-level priorities into shipped outcomes. You'll own cross-functional programs spanning AI transformation, GTM, operations, and strategy — and you'll be measured on what gets done, not what gets discussed.
nLocation & Hours
nBase location: Mumbai (in-office).
nWorking hours: 5:00 PM – 2:30 AM IST, aligned to US business hours, Monday–Friday.
nThis is non-negotiable — the role requires real-time collaboration with the Founder and US-based stakeholders. Please apply only if you're comfortable with this schedule.
nWhat You'll Do
nDrive end-to-end program management for the Founder's most critical initiatives — set goals, define milestones, unblock teams,



and ensure on-time, on-quality delivery.
nLead AI transformation programs across the company: identify high-leverage workflows, partner with product/engineering/ops to deploy AI-first solutions, and measure impact on speed, cost, and quality.
nPartner with the central COE team to scale playbooks, processes, and tooling across business units — bringing operational rigour to areas that are still founder-led or ad-hoc.
nBuild dashboards, reviews, and operating cadences (weekly/monthly business reviews, OKR tracking, exec updates) that give the Founder real-time visibility into what's working and what isn't.
nStep in as a force multiplier — own special projects end-to-end, from M&A; diligence and fundraising prep to current market entry, pricing experiments, or customer escalations.
nTranslate founder vision into crisp briefs, plans, and execution roadmaps that other teams can run with.
nAct as the primary
