About the Role :
We're looking for an Operations Manager – Campus Launch who will own the end-to-end setup of new campuses from scratch.

This is a pure 01 role: you will take a campus from an empty shell (or early-stage infrastructure) to a fully functional, ready-to-run environment for students and teams.

You will work across infrastructure, vendors, logistics, academic readiness, and on-ground operations to ensure that everything required for Day 1 is in place and working.

This role requires extreme ownership, strong execution under ambiguity, and the ability to operate in unstructured environments where nothing is predefined.

Responsibilities :

Campus Setup (0 1 Ownership)

Own the complete setup of new campuses - from early-stage planning to Day 1 readiness

Translate high-level requirements into detailed execution plans across infrastructure, logistics, and operations

Drive campus readiness across both academic and non-academic requirements

Vendor & External Partner Management

Identify, onboard, and manage vendors across facilities, logistics, and services

Negotiate contracts and coordinate timelines to ensure on-schedule delivery across all external partners

Continuously track execution on-ground and resolve vendor bottlenecks in real time

Operational Readiness

Ensure all systems required for running the campus are in place before launch:

Timetables and scheduling systems

Student onboarding and movement flows

Issue reporting and resolution mechanisms

Anticipate operational gaps before launch and proactively solve for them.

On-Ground Execution

Spend significant time on campus during setup phases to ensure execution quality

Personally track progress, identify gaps, and ensure closure

Handle last-mile execution and firefighting leading up to launch

Step in across functions wherever required to unblock progress - problem statements will often be unclear and evolving

Required Skills & Qualifications :

2–5 years of experience in operations, business operations, or startup roles with strong execution exposure
Demonstrated ability to build or set up something from scratch (01 experience preferred)
Strong ownership mindset - ability to drive outcomes without structured guidance
High comfort working in ambiguous, fast-changing environments
Ability to manage multiple stakeholders (internal teams, vendors, partners) without direct authority
High attention to detail with strong follow-through
Willingness to relocate temporarily or be on-site for extended periods during launch phases
Proficiency in project tracking and operations tools (Excel, Google Sheets, or similar)
Bachelor's degree required; MBA is a plus

What Makes Someone Successful in This Role :

You can take an incomplete, messy setup and make it fully functional.
You are highly execution-focused and close loops aggressively.
You don't rely on predefined processes - you create them when needed.
You are comfortable with chaos and can bring structure where required.
You are hands-on and willing to do whatever it takes to get to launch readiness.
