Grassik is looking to build an internal GCC practice. We are looking for a high-energy, commercially sharp professional to build and grow our GCC practice. This role is ideal for someone who has previously managed & hired for clients within the GCC ecosystem in India, and can translate client hiring needs into high-quality leadership and specialist talent solutions. If you excel at building relationships with senior stakeholders and driving business growth, we want to hear from you.

- Build, manage and expand relationships with GCC leaders, CHROs, functional heads and business stakeholders.

- Understand client business priorities, organization structures, workforce plans and hiring challenges; translate these into clear search and talent-advisory strategies.
