About Us
A Just World is an organisation working on food systems and animal protection in India. We are a growing team of 12, working across multiple cities. Our work is grounded in strong systems, clear accountability, and a culture of ownership.
The Role
This is a critical role responsible for ensuring the organisation runs smoothly and reliably. You will manage day-to-day operations, ensuring systems function well, deadlines are met, and nothing falls through the cracks.
This role requires someone who is highly organised, takes full ownership of their work, and follows through without supervision.
Key Responsibilities:
• Maintain governance and compliance documentation, including board resolutions, filings, and trust records
• Schedule and coordinate board meetings, including agenda setting, minutes, and follow-ups
• Coordinate with the accountant on monthly invoices, financial reports, and salaries
• Liaise with banks on account operations and requirements
• Maintain the weekly tracker to ensure visibility on deadlines and flag blockers in a timely manner
• Manage HR administration, including contracts, leave records, employee database, onboarding, and offboarding
• Maintain Google Drive, shared documents, and organisational records
• Proactively identify and flag risks or issues early, with clarity
What We Are Looking For:
• 4–7 years of experience in operations, administration, or organisational management
• Experience in an NGO or small organisation is preferred
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple workstreams reliably
• Clear written and verbal communication in English
• Ability to work independently with high ownership
• Willingness to flag problems early, even without immediate solutions
• Jaipur-based preferred; open to remote candidates for the right fit
This Role Is Not for You If:
• You require close supervision or frequent direction to get started
• You are primarily looking to work on programmes rather than operations
• You are not comfortable with high accountability and measurable outcomes
