Director — ESG & Reporting
ESG, BRSR & Disclosures
Compensation
INR 35 - 55 LPA + equity.
Engagement
Full-Time
Permanent role. Full-time commitment. Primarily on-site, with limited remote flexibility.
Scope of role
Set direction within your domain. Build and mentor a team. Own outcomes at the function level.
01 — The role
Why this role exists at EduRankAI
Own the ESG reporting machine. BRSR, GRI, SASB, TCFD, voluntary disclosures, ratings agencies. The auditable numbers and the narrative around them. This is the role where every number you publish has to survive an external auditor, a hostile rating agency, and a regulator reading it carefully. The reporting is the credibility — there is no separation.
02 — The work
What you will own
- 01 Own the BRSR / ESG report end-to-end — data, narrative, audit, board sign-off.
- 02 Liaise with rating agencies (MSCI, Sustainalytics, S&P) and respond to their methodologies on the record.
- 03 Own internal ESG controls and the data lineage behind every published number.
- 04 Coordinate climate-risk disclosure (TCFD aligned) jointly with sustainability + finance.
- 05 Train internal teams on what counts as ESG-relevant data and what does not.
- 06 Author the annual sustainability report — both narrative chapters and methodological appendices.
03 — The expertise
What we look for
04 — The bar
Who thrives here
- → You have led or substantially authored at least three published BRSR or GRI reports that were independently audited.
- → You have responded to a ratings-agency questionnaire on the record and engaged in their follow-up.
- → You have authored a methodology note that survived peer review.
- → You can describe a published number you corrected after the fact, and how.
- → You write clearly enough that a board can read your appendix.
05 — Hiring process
