About this role

<div class="content-intro"><h3 data-start="401" data-end="419">About Zinnov</h3> Zinnov is a global management consulting firm that helps organizations make decisions that actually get used — and deliver results that matter. For over two decades, we’ve partnered with leading enterprises, high-growth technology companies, and investors to answer some of the toughest questions they face: <ul data-start="732" data-end="840"> <li style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-start="732" data-end="759"> Where should we invest? </li> <li style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-start="760" data-end="789"> How do we scale globally? </li> <li style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" data-start="790" data-end="840"> What capabilities will win in the next decade? </li> </ul> Our work shapes market entry strategies, global operating models, M&A decisions, and long-term growth bets. We’re known for being data-led, execution-focused, and outcome-driven — not opinion-heavy slideware. At Zinnov, how you work matters as much as what you deliver. We value independent thinking, crisp communication, and early ownership. With 450+ professionals across 10 global offices, we work across industries including Digital Services, ER&D, Enterprise Software, Semiconductors, Healthcare, BFSI, Automotive, Media & Telecom, and Private Equity. Zinnov isn’t for everyone. It’s for people who want steep learning curves, honest feedback, and the chance to see their work influence real business decisions — not just presentations.</div>Why Globalization Excellence (GE)  Zinnov’s Globalization Excellence (GE) practice helps enterprises build and scale Global Capability Centers (GCCs) end-to-end — from Design & Discovery to Build, Scale, and Run.   In GE, you don’t work in silos.
