Gurgaon, Haryana, India Adara Full time ₹ 20,00,000 - ₹ 25,00,000 per year

About Adara

Adara is not a traditional consulting firm. We are a
venture builder and strategy partner
, co-founded by alumni from
INSEAD, IIT, and IIM
. We go beyond advice—we embed ourselves as
Chiefs of Staff, Board Advisors, Entrepreneurs-in-Residence, Product Innovators, and CXO extensions
for visionary founders.

Our model blends
AI-human collaboration, expert networks, and embedded operators
to help startups and growth-stage businesses turn
vision into traction—and traction into scale.

Role Summary

We are seeking a
senior, entrepreneurial leader
—an MBA (top-tier) or ex-founder (YC/Techstars/seed-to-scale experience)—to join us as an
Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EiR)
.

As EiR, you will work directly with the founders of Adara and our portfolio companies, helping to
design, validate, and scale new ventures.
You'll bring both
strategic acumen
and
operator grit
—able to craft a financial model in the morning, pitch investors by afternoon, and guide execution by evening.

This is not a spectator role—you'll be in the cockpit.

Responsibilities

  • Partner with founders & CXOs to
    incubate, launch, and scale
    ventures.
  • Lead strategy sprints:
    market research, customer validation, financial modeling.
  • Support fundraising:
    deck creation, investor outreach, structuring.
  • Act as interim
    CoS / growth lead / product strategist
    within ventures.
  • Build and manage
    cross-functional teams
    (operators, analysts, domain experts).
  • Translate strategic vision into measurable execution milestones.

Qualifications

  • MBA from a
    top-tier program
    (INSEAD, Booth, Kellogg, HBS, Wharton, ISB, IIMs) OR ex-founder with strong scaling experience (YC/Techstars/Sequoia Surge etc.).
  • 5–10 years of experience in
    startups, consulting, VC/PE, or corporate strategy.
  • Strong financial modeling, growth strategy, and product-market fit understanding.
  • Exceptional communication, leadership, and networking skills.
  • Bias for action: thrives in ambiguity, startup chaos, and high-stakes situations.

Why Join Adara?

  • Work on multiple ventures
    across sectors—like a "multi-startup crash course."
  • Founder-level exposure
    : sit in the cockpit with Adara partners (INSEAD/IIT/IIM alumni).
  • Skin in the game
    : potential equity/partnership opportunities in ventures.
  • High-impact playground
    : shape companies from zero-to-one and beyond.
  • Network amplification
    : work with CXOs, VCs, and global operators.


Apply if:
You're a builder at heart, love wearing multiple hats, and believe in creating value by being on the ground, not just on the slide deck.
