Hubli, Karnataka, India Deshpande Skilling Full time
Chief Operating Officer – Deshpande Educational Trust

Deshpande Foundation, India is conducting a search for Chief Operating Officer (COO) for the Deshpande Educational Trust, headquartered in Hubballi, Karnataka.


Deshpande Foundation (Founded by Jaishree and Gururaj Desh Deshpande) set up the Social Innovation Sandbox in Hubballi, Karnataka, India in 2008 with the realization that to have an impact at the bottom of the pyramid, solutions must be co-created with the community and capacity must be built within those communities to spread the solutions.

This initiative has grown into one of India's largest non-profit organizations employing over 1200 staff, with a footprint across four states, benefitting thousands of farmers, thousands of rural youths and thousands of school-going children in villages each year.

The Foundation today owns and operates a 300,000 square-foot residential skilling campus and a 100,000 square-foot Startup Incubator.

This apart, the most valuable asset of the Foundation is the huge amount of goodwill and trust it has accumulated among the community and other stakeholders over the decade-plus of impactful work on the ground.

The program has matured and has positively impacted many thousands of farmers, unemployed graduates, microentrepreneurs and incubators.

By way of impact, farmer incomes have doubled due construction of farm ponds, unemployed youth who were trained at our campus now have jobs, microentrepreneurs have been trained and have grown their businesses.

Many companies which have been incubated with us are now employing people to grow their businesses.

Though the progress is impressive, India is a large country and so is the size of the problem.

The strength of our work lies in the capacity to bring in a systems approach to scale our solutions so that we can create larger impact.

Deshpande Educational Trust or Deshpande Skilling

The Deshpande Education trust receives contributions from the community, and grants from CSR and philanthropic funds with which it develops, pilots and executes scalable and affordable community models of educational and skilling services that complement existing school and college systems and help underserved children and youth to bridge the gap to opportunities of bright academic careers and productive working careers.

Skill in Village

A before and after-school activity-led learning program targeted towards children of grades five to eight at Government Village Schools to build their confidence and aspiration to pursue a good academic career and successful life.

While each of these programs is led by tenured leaders with their teams, the COO of Deshpande Education Trust, will be responsible for overseeing the institute's operations and strategic initiatives to ensure the delivery of high-quality courses and services and scale them across India
