Role
We are looking for a Deputy Manager, Analytics & Insights to join our FP&A Analytics Team. This role is based in Mohali on a hybrid basis, reporting to the Manager, FP&A Analytics.

By partnering across the organization, you will help scale our operations and nurture a culture of excellence through sophisticated financial insights and data infrastructure.

You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.

You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
