We are looking for a highly driven and execution-focused Program Manager – Career Services to build and scale a high-impact employability and student success program for international students studying in India. This is a foundational role focused on creating systems, improving student outcomes, and building a structured career-readiness ecosystem from the ground up.
You will own the student journey end-to-end — from onboarding and activation to assignment evaluation, curriculum refinement, internship success, and employer readiness. The role requires a unique combination of operational rigor, student empathy, structured thinking, and robust ownership.
This is not a role where you inherit established systems. You will design the processes, build the playbooks, and create the standards that define long-term program success.
Key Responsibilities
Student Activation & Cohort Management
Identify and onboard motivated students in collaboration with student affairs teams.
Build and maintain weekly student tracking systems covering employability scores, assignment completion, internships, and earnings.
Ensure strong cohort participation and maintain high assignment submission rates across active student groups.
Prepare final-year student profiles and coordinate readiness for placement opportunities.
Design onboarding frameworks and engagement playbooks for new student intakes.
Assignment Evaluation & Feedback
Evaluate assignments consistently within defined turnaround timelines.
Provide structured, actionable,



and individualized feedback to students.
Track performance trends across cohorts and identify improvement opportunities.
Prepare weekly cohort performance reports highlighting top performers, disengaged students, and risk indicators.
Curriculum Design & Delivery
Audit existing curriculum and identify content gaps, outdated modules, and areas for improvement.
Co-design and continuously improve employability-focused learning programs aligned with current market demands.
Ensure assignments and learning outcomes remain relevant to employer expectations and emerging industry trends.
Coordinate with content and operations teams to support curriculum delivery and updates.
Internship & Employer Success
Build internship onboarding processes and operational SOPs.
Coordinate student readiness before internship placements.
Track internship completion, employer satisfaction, and partner retention metrics.
Collect employer feedback and use insights to strengthen curriculum and student preparedness.
Fellowship & Student Leadership Programs
Identify and onboard high-performing student fellows to support cohort engagement and operations.
Define responsibilities, monitor performance, and recommend continuation or rotation decisions.
Ensure fellows actively support onboarding,



participation, and student motivation initiatives.
Stakeholder & Student Affairs Coordination
Partner closely with student affairs and academic teams to support student engagement and welfare.
Escalate disengagement or performance concerns proactively.
Coordinate activation events, student interventions, and engagement initiatives across locations.
Employability Intelligence & Reporting
Deliver regular employability insights and skill trend reports to leadership.
Identify emerging skills, tools, and market requirements relevant to remote and global employment opportunities.
Recommend curriculum innovations, new learning tracks, and process improvements based on student and employer feedback.
What We're Looking For
3–5 years of experience managing training, student success, career services, cohort operations, or employability programs.
Experience building systems, SOPs, and operational processes from scratch.
Strong ability to evaluate work, provide structured feedback, and manage programs at scale.
Excellent organizational, analytical, and stakeholder management skills.
Strong understanding of student psychology, motivation, and engagement.
Ability to work independently in fast-moving and ambiguous environments.
Strong interest in employability trends, remote work opportunities, and workforce readiness.
