About Youth Business Projects (YBP):
At Udhyam we believe in the “learning by doing” approach. What better way to build entrepreneurial mindsets than trying entrepreneurship hands-on?
We are scaling up an exciting model to enable students to try their hands at entrepreneurship – the students get seed money to develop a business idea into reality. Over the course of this program, the students work in teams, get input for coming up with ideas and receive the requisite support to develop an idea into a viable business. The businesses also get assessed and the teams can advance to unlock mentorship and more resources.
To deepen our impact, we are designing a number of online and offline features for the program to improve content delivery, deepen implementation quality and widen mentorship. We are looking for a Senior Manager- Curriculum who will be a part of the core team of the program and will work closely with Udhyam’s internal teams and government stakeholders to create scalable high-quality learning experiences for students. The candidate must also possess skills required for driving a young and enthusiastic team towards the organisational goals in a non-hierarchical manner.
