Associate Director - People Success Partner

About Zinnov

Zinnov is a global management consulting firm that helps organizations make decisions that actually get used — and deliver results that matter. For over two decades, we’ve partnered with leading enterprises, high-growth technology companies, and investors to answer some of the toughest questions they face:

• Where should we invest?

• How do we scale globally?

• What capabilities will win in the next decade?

Our work shapes market entry strategies, global operating models, M&A decisions, and long-term growth bets. We’re known for being data-led, execution-focused, and outcome-driven — not opinion-heavy slideware.

At Zinnov, how you work matters as much as what you deliver. We value independent thinking, crisp communication, and early ownership. With 450+ professionals across 10 global offices, we work across industries including Digital Services, ER&D, Enterprise Software, Semiconductors, Healthcare, BFSI, Automotive, Media & Telecom, and Private Equity.

Zinnov isn’t for everyone. It’s for people who want steep learning curves, honest feedback, and the chance to see their work influence real business decisions — not just presentations.

Why Globalization Excellence (GE)
Zinnov’s Globalization Excellence (GE) practice helps enterprises build and scale Global Capability Centers (GCCs) end-to-end — from Design & Discovery to Build, Scale, and Run.
In GE, you don’t work in silos. You:
•    Own complex, end-to-end client journeys
•    Work across GCC advisory, managed services, and BOT / outsourcing models
•    Influence leadership decisions that shape long-term talent and operating strategies
This is where strategy meets execution — and where talent plays a defining role.

About the Role
As a Leadership Role-People & Organization Advisory, you will own the full spectrum of people strategy and execution for a large, high-velocity operations environment (1000+ employee scale). This role is designed for a strategic, results-oriented HR leader who can independently drive people interventions that improve talent outcomes, culture, engagement, and operational performance — while serving as a trusted advisor to senior leadership.

You will blend strategic influence with hands-on execution, using data, diagnostics, and strong stakeholder partnership to drive measurable improvements across attrition, productivity, employee experience, and capability building.

What You’ll Do
People Strategy & Design
•    Design and propose best-in-class people & strategy solutions for the client based on their scale, complexity and business problems – with the end goal of facilitating the GCC to achieve maturity faster
•    Create AI enabled transformation interventions that enables the client to move forward faster in their goals to achieve capability building on the site with effectiveness
•    Actively partner with the stakeholders to design and track core metrics that will enable AI adoption faster, and achieve the strategic focus areas for the particular GCC
•    Own end to end execution of the proposed solutions with the teams on the ground with minimal defects or delays
•    Integrate people strategy with business priorities to enable growth, operational efficiency, and talent scalability.
•    Act as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, shaping people decisions with context, clarity, and strong judgment.
•    Drive org-wide HR priorities with tight governance, ownership, and predictable execution.
