Personal Secretary to the Director

Mangalore / Udupi · Western Ghats Restoration · Field & Community

Location: Home-based | Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, Uttara Kannada districts

Travel: MANDATORY. Extensive travel with the Director across Karnataka, Maharashtra and Goa — usually 3–4 days at a stretch, and occasionally abroad. This is a travelling role; candidates unable to travel should not apply.

Type: Full time · High-trust role, works directly with the Director

ABOUT THIS ROLE

Ayra Media is a strategy and narrative advisory firm. Alongside our advisory work we lead a large ecological restoration programme across Karnataka's Western Ghats, currently active in Udupi, and sit within a group spanning agri-trade, aviation advisory, and biotech-based natural solutions for plant and animal healthcare.

This role is built around the Western Ghats programme. You will move between boardroom meetings and grassroots work with booth leaders and community groups — often in the same week. This is not a desk job: you travel directly with the Director, not as part of a larger office team.

Home is your base. Travel is your office.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Travel with the Director for meetings, CSR discussions, field visits and reviews across Karnataka, Maharashtra and Goa

• Attend every meeting including CSR sessions; capture decisions, action points and follow-ups





• Own the follow-up work once the Director hands off a task, and track it to completion

• Bring together and coordinate booth leaders, with focus on women, children and senior citizen groups

• Appoint booth leaders and lead household-level data collection across assigned booths

• Manage the Director's calendar, email and communications

• Prepare briefing notes, presentations and documents on the move

• Coordinate with clients, partners, NGOs and institutions

• Represent the Director's office confidently in corporate and community settings

CANDIDATE PROFILE

• Based in or willing to relocate to Dakshina Kannada, Udupi or Uttara Kannada

• Comfortable with regular outstation travel, usually 3–4 days at a time, including occasional international trips

• Able to work independently and close out follow-ups without close supervision

• Confident, mature and discreet in both professional and community settings

• Prior experience as PS / EA / PA, or in programme coordination, preferred

• Prior experience in hospitality, airlines, events or field-corporate roles is a plus

• Proficient in MS Office, WhatsApp Business, email and everyday digital tools

WHAT MAKES THIS ROLE DIFFERENT

• A travel-driven role — not a desk job

• Direct access to leadership and real decision-making

• Exposure to corporate, CSR, agri-trade and restoration work

• Trust-based, high-responsibility role with long-term growth
