About upGrad GSP upGrad GSP (formerly Global Study Partners) is upGrad’s study-abroad business — a B2B marketplace that connects students with 600+ universities and colleges across Australia, the UK, Canada, the US, Ireland and New Zealand through a network of 1,300+ recruitment partners. Founded in Sydney in 2015 and acquired by upGrad in 2021, GSP’s India business is one of its fastest-growing markets.
This role works directly with the Business Head for India — a high-visibility seat at the centre of that growth.
Key Responsibilities: • Data analytics and reporting: Track enrolment trends, application funnel and stage-wise conversion; flag drops and spikes early, diagnose the cause, and own dashboards, weekly/monthly MIS and forecasting.
- Driving cross-functional projects: Run projects end to end with admissions, recruitment, marketing, product and finance — scope, timelines, dependencies and closure.
- Business planning and target setting: Support the AOP and quarterly planning cycle; cascade targets to region and partner level and track performance against plan.
- Business reviews and governance: Prepare the Business Head for weekly, monthly and quarterly reviews, and drive action trackers to closure.
- Process design and improvement: Fix bottlenecks across the application-toenrolment journey through SOPs, automation and product inputs.
- Partner and market intelligence: Track partner productivity, intake-cycle patterns and competitor/destination-market shifts, and convert these into actionable inputs.
- Special projects and new initiatives: Pilot and scale recent initiatives — geographies,
partner segments or product lines — from business case to handover.
- Stakeholder communication: Keep leadership, global teams and partners aligned with crisp updates and timely escalation. What we’re looking for:
- High ownership: You chase closure without being chased and are comfortable operating with ambiguity.
- Strong data orientation: You can read a funnel and build a forecast.
Advanced
Excel/Sheets essential; SQL or Power BI/Tableau a plus.
- Brilliant execution: Bias for action, sharp prioritisation and relentless followthrough.
- Excellent communication: Crisp updates, leadership-ready decks and confidence with senior stakeholders.
- Cross-functional influence: You drive outcomes through teams that don’t report to you.
- Structured problem solving: Hypothesis-led thinking and the judgement to know when to go deep versus when to move.
What’s in it for you:
- Rapid-track growth: A high-ownership seat in one of GSP’s fastest-growing markets, with a runway to broader business responsibility.
- Work directly with a seasoned Business Head: A front-row view of how a growth business is planned, reviewed and course-corrected.
- Sharp learning curve: Breadth across analytics, planning, partner strategy, operations and product in a single role.
- Visibility with leadership: Your work goes straight into India and global leadership reviews.
- Global exposure: An international education business spanning six destination markets.
- Purpose-led work: Every enrolment you unlock is a student accessing an education that changes their trajectory
