• Manage the working-level requirements for 2% CSR compliance and statutory filings, including collating information, maintaining supporting documentation, coordinating inputs and reviews, tracking approvals, and meeting applicable deadlines.
• Maintain accurate and audit-ready records for CSR grants, approvals, agreements, due diligence, utilization documentation, monitoring reports, impact information, and other governance requirements.
• Support the preparation of periodic CSR reporting for management, governance forums, the Board, regional and global stakeholders, and other internal requirements.
• Track CSR budgets, grants, disbursements, spending, and partner submissions; flag gaps or delays early and follow through to closure.
• Coordinate charity partner onboarding, due diligence, grant documentation, renewals, reporting, site visits, and routine relationship management.
• Employee Volunteering Community Affairs Campaign
• Project-manage Global Volunteer Month (GVM) and other employee volunteering campaigns in India, including partner coordination, activity planning, registrations, logistics, communications inputs, risk and compliance requirements, participation tracking, and post-campaign reporting.
• Coordinate with India Philanthropy networks, business units, offices, and charity partners to deliver volunteering opportunities consistently across locations.
• Prepare clear and concise presentations, briefing notes, approval emails, trackers, dashboards, and status updates for senior stakeholders. The ideal candidate will have the following qualifications, professional experience, and personal qualities:
• A passion for social impact and a deep understanding of community development issues in India
• BA/BS and 8+ years of experience in Community Affairs, CSR, or philanthropy/non-profits
• Understanding of India's 2% CSR landscape, including regulatory compliance and due diligence requirements
• Working knowledge of India's 2% CSR regulatory and compliance framework, including governance, due diligence, documentation, reporting, and statutory filing requirements.
• Experience supporting CSR program administration, partner management, grant processes, budgets, program reporting, and audit or compliance reviews.
• Strong project-management and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams, recurring deadlines, and detailed follow-through.
• High level of diligence and attention to detail, with a disciplined approach to documentation and record keeping.
• Strong analytical skills and comfort working with budgets, trackers, program data, and reporting metrics.
• Clear and concise written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present relevant context, key facts, and next steps upfront.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook; experience using collaboration, workflow, or reporting tools would be useful.

What you'll bring to the role:

• Hands-on experience supporting or managing 2% CSR compliance, reporting, filings, governance documentation, or grant administration in India.
• Experience coordinating with non-profit partners and reviewing program, financials, due diligence, and utilization of documentation.
