Internal Venture Program Manager

K2 Venture · India

The role Run ventures before they have CEOs. You will take internally created companies from concept through validation, MVP, and pilot to launch — owning execution until each venture is ready for standalone leadership.

What you will do

• Manage incubating ventures day-to-day through validation, MVP build, pilot, and launch
• Run the build cadence: milestones, budgets, hiring plans, and stage-gate readiness
• Coordinate founding team members, external partners, and the group's platform teams
• Own venture-level reporting: progress, risks, burn, and decisions needed
• Set up the early commercial motion — pilots, first customers, and feedback loops
• Hand over cleanly to standalone venture leadership at launch

What you have done

• 5–8 years in program management, product management, or startup operations
• Shipped products or launched initiatives end-to-end with cross-functional teams
• Managed budgets, timelines, and executive reporting across multiple workstreams simultaneously
• Created structure in ambiguity — you have operated where no playbook existed

Good to have: Incubator, accelerator, or venture studio experience; Agile or PMP certification; early-stage startup experience.

Why join: You get repeated zero-to-one reps inside a funded platform; a direct path toward venture leadership roles as the portfolio grows.
