Business Development Manager Location: Craftizen Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation founded in 2014 with a vision to preserve and evolve Indian craft skills so that they remain an integral part of our cultural fabric. We focus on craft-based skill and design training, coupled with market-driven capacity building to enable sustainable livelihoods for the following marginalised communities:

Adults with intellectual disability
Underprivileged women
We implement our livelihood programs with support from CSR donors, and in partnership with NGO partners. We are currently supporting 100+ vocational training and livelihood centres across 11 states .

Our goal is to provide dignified income earning and employment opportunities to communities with no other sources / limited avenues for sustained income generation.

Under our flagship initiative, the 'Petalists Livelihoods Program', we focus on eco-friendly craft skills such as recycling of Temple flowers and paper discards to create a range of unique products. These skills were selected since they suited the ability of our artisans who are adults with intellectual disability.

We created 'Petalists' as a brand to market the unique products created through this initiative including Holi Colours, Festive gifting especially for Diwali, Trophies, Medals and Corporate gifts.
