Assistant Manager – Human Resources

About the role

We are looking for a Performance & Rewards Specialist to work as an individual contributor owning the end-to-end performance management cycle (approx. 70% of the role) and supporting compensation & rewards processes (approx. 30% of the role). This is a hands-on execution role rather than a people-management role — the candidate will drive processes directly, working closely with HRBPs, managers, and Finance, without managing a team.

What you'll do

• Own and administer the complete performance management lifecycle — goal-setting/OKR cascading, mid-year and annual reviews, self-appraisals, manager appraisals
• Configure and manage performance review cycles, templates, rating scales, and workflows in Keka
• Drive timely completion of goal-setting, check-ins, and appraisal cycles through tracking, reminders, and escalations to managers and employees
• Support calibration sessions across business units — consolidating ratings, flagging outliers, and preparing calibration decks/data for leadership discussions
• Partner with business unit HRBPs and managers to ensure quality of goal-setting (SMART goals/OKRs) and meaningful feedback documentation

What you need

• 6–8 yrs of experience
• Performance management
• Compensation and benefits
• Talent management
• HRMS
• Statutory compliance
• Payroll
• MBA

What you get

• ₹12 L–₹15 L a year
