Company Description Nabhya Ayurveda is dedicated to promoting health from within, rooted in classical Ayurvedic principles. The brand centers its philosophy around the Nabhi (belly button), considered in Ayurveda as the body’s core, closely linked to digestion, metabolism, immunity, and overall balance. In a modern world where traditional wisdom is often overlooked, Nabhya Ayurveda focuses on reviving and applying these age-old insights in a contemporary, accessible way.

Team members work in an environment that blends holistic wellness, scientific understanding, and customer-centered product innovation. Applicants can expect a mission-driven culture that values authenticity, learning, and a deep respect for Ayurveda.

About the role

About 70% of the role is recruiting: finding, attracting and closing solid performance marketers, creative strategists, video editors, marketplace and retention specialists. The other 30% is running the floor: people operations, HRMS, attendance, onboarding, and keeping the team engaged and accountable.

You’ll report directly to the founder.

What you’ll do

Recruitment (your main focus)

- Own hiring end to end: work out what each role needs with the founder, write sharp job descriptions, source, screen, coordinate interviews, close offers and make sure people actually join
- Know where good talent is for each role, beyond job portals: LinkedIn, D2C and marketing communities, Instagram and Behance for creative roles, referrals, colleges and freelancer networks
- Build a pipeline of candidates before roles open, not after
- Run structured screening with role-specific questions, practical tasks and scorecards, so we hire on proof of work rather than résumés
- Negotiate offers, manage notice periods, and keep candidates engaged until they join
- Manage recruitment agencies and job portals (Naukri, LinkedIn, Instahyre, etc.)



and track how much each source costs and what it delivers
- Build our employer brand: careers page, LinkedIn presence, and making candidates want to work here

People operations & floor management

- Run day-to-day floor management: attendance, discipline, leave, and making sure the office runs smoothly
- Own our HRMS (Keka, Zoho People, GreytHR or similar): employee records, attendance, leave and payroll inputs
- Coordinate monthly payroll with finance/CA and handle PF, ESIC and statutory compliance
- Run onboarding so every new hire is productive in their first week, and run exit processes properly
- Set up basic HR policies, an employee handbook and appraisal cycles as we grow
- Be the first point of contact for employee concerns, resolve conflicts early, and keep morale and retention high

- You’ve hired for marketing, creative or e-commerce roles and know what good looks like in them
- You know where to find talent for each kind of role, and you have a network to start with
- Hands-on with at least one HRMS, and comfortable with payroll inputs and Indian statutory compliance (PF, ESIC, PT)
- Firm but approachable on the floor. People respect you and come to you
- Fast and organised: you can run 6+ open roles at once without dropping any
- Strong communication in English and Hindi

Bonus
