Job Description:

We are seeking a driven, structured problem-solver to join the Project Management Unit (PMU) of The Livelihood Collective (TLC) – a multi-funder collaborative transforming India's Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) from qualification factories into employment engines.

As a Senior Associate in the central PMU, you will work at the heart of the program – supporting TLC leadership across strategy, playbook development, program management and monitoring, and acting as a key connector between the PMU, state teams and lead implementation partners.

Key Responsibilities:
- Support the development and continuous refinement of the 10-pillar ITI transformation playbook – working across states and modules and codifying learning from the field
- Drive program management and oversight for the PMU – planning, tracking milestones, flagging risks and delays, and keeping workstreams on schedule across both phases
- Own outcome and progress tracking through the tech-enabled M&E; backbone – supporting the north-star EET metric, ITI scorecards and cascaded reporting f
