About The Role

The Public Policy Sr. Associate will take ownership of a critical, high-priority policy charter at a pan-India level. In this strategic role, you will be responsible for architecting comprehensive, long-term advocacy strategies and working in close lockstep with our regional State Policy Leads to ensure seamless execution on the ground. Additionally, you will champion a vital core work charter dedicated to union engagement, proactively building relationships with organized labor groups and gig-worker associations to safeguard the company's corporate reputation and operational footprint across the country.

What You'll Do

National Strategy & Advocacy: Design and own the overarching Pan-India public policy advocacy strategy for a critical business priority, translating macro-level regulatory challenges into actionable national campaigns. Given the dynamic nature of the industry, the candidate must be comfortable handling ambiguity and shifting between diverse policy portfolios (e.g. bike taxis, social security, or taxation).
State-Level Execution & Partnership:



Partner deeply with regional and State Policy Leads to contextualize, deploy, and execute the national strategy across diverse state jurisdictions, respecting local socio-political nuances.
Union Engagement Portfolio: Lead the strategic union engagement work charter; establish proactive communication channels with trade unions, transport associations, and gig-worker groups to foster constructive dialogue and mitigate reputational risks. You would own the policy positioning and strategic engagement frameworks for unions, while partnering with Legal and Ops for localized/court dispute management.
Reputation Frameworks: Develop a continuous drumbeat of trust-building initiatives and programmatic campaigns that position the company as a progressive partner to government, labor bodies, and civil society stakeholders.
Cross-Functional Leadership: Collaborate closely with internal partners across Comms
