Job Description
We‘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
n

nBase location: Mumbai (in-office).
n

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
n

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.
