Compliance Lead

Artha Group is a performance-led investment house that manages over 1,250 crores (USD 150M+) across five fund platforms. Our vertically integrated model spans venture capital, renewable energy assets, and global fund-of-fund structures.

We operate with discipline, foresight, and long-term conviction. Compliance is not just a support function but an institutional safeguard.

As the Head of Compliance, you will lead Artha Group's enterprise-wide compliance framework across domestic and global fund structures, private entities, LLPs, and investor-facing mandates.

This is a senior leadership role best suited for a Company Secretary with a decade of experience and deep familiarity with SEBI-regulated AIFs and fund governance protocols.

Our ideal candidate protects the firm without slowing its momentum. They will establish robust compliance systems, ensure timely reporting across regulators, elevate risk visibility for leadership, and uphold the integrity of every statutory and investor-facing process.

Beyond rule-following, your role is to bring structure, foresight, and credibility to every legal or regulatory interface we touch.
