Growth Manager

Vedantu

We’re looking for a high-ownership, hands-on Growth Manager to drive end-to-end business growth for Vedantu’s College Connect vertical. This role goes beyond program execution. You’ll identify growth opportunities, shape business strategy, drive sales and marketing initiatives, manage client relationships, and own measurable business outcomes. You’ll work across revenue, costs, margins, campaign performance, and profitability to turn opportunities into sustainable growth.

If you enjoy combining business strategy with execution, thrive in fast-paced environments, and are comfortable taking ownership from problem identification to results, this role is for you.

About College Connect:

College Connect helps colleges reach the right student audiences, including JEE aspirants and CBSE and state-board students.

We design and execute targeted marketing campaigns that generate student interest, drive enquiries, support admissions, and deliver measurable business outcomes. Our focus is on connecting the right students with the right institutions through effective marketing, strong execution, and data-driven decision-making.

What You’ll Do:

1. Own Business Growth and P&L

  • Take end-to-end ownership of growth initiatives, from identifying opportunities to executing strategies and measuring results.
  • Drive business performance across revenue, costs, margins, and profitability.
  • Identify opportunities to expand across markets, customer segments, acquisition channels, and offerings.
  • Monitor business performance, identify gaps, and implement initiatives to improve commercial outcomes.

2. Drive Strategy and Execution

  • Translate business and client requirements into clear strategies, actionable plans, and execution roadmaps.
  • Lead initiatives from planning and execution through measurement and optimisation.
  • Set priorities, establish accountability, and ensure timely delivery against business goals.
  • Identify what is working, diagnose what is not, and course-correct quickly.

3. Lead Sales and Marketing Initiatives

  • Work closely with sales and marketing teams to drive customer acquisition, enquiries, conversions, and business growth.
  • Evaluate digital marketing and YouTube campaign performance, identify improvement opportunities, and drive optimisation.
  • Track key acquisition, conversion, and retention metrics to improve campaign effectiveness.
  • Align marketing activities with client objectives and commercial outcomes.

4. Own Client Relationships

  • Manage key client relationships and develop a strong understanding of their business objectives and challenges.
  • Translate client requirements into effective plans and ensure consistent execution and delivery.
  • Build trust through clear communication, reliable execution, and strong commercial understanding.
  • Identify opportunities to strengthen partnerships and deliver long-term value.

5. Drive Data-Led Decision-Making

  • Track and analyse business, campaign, revenue, cost, and client performance metrics.
  • Build and maintain dashboards and structured reports to monitor progress against targets.
  • Translate data into actionable insights and recommendations for leadership and clients.
  • Use performance insights to guide decisions, optimise execution, and improve business outcomes.

6. Lead Cross-Functional Program Management

  • Coordinate initiatives across internal teams and external stakeholders.
  • Establish clear ownership, priorities, timelines, and success metrics.
  • Proactively identify execution risks and resolve bottlenecks.
  • Ensure teams remain aligned and accountable for delivering business outcomes.

What We’re Looking For:

  • 3–4 years of experience in growth, business ownership, program management, marketing, sales, or a related function, ideally in a startup or scale-up.
  • Exposure to P&L management, including revenue, costs, margins, and profitability.
  • A strong understanding of sales and marketing, with an interest in or experience with digital marketing and YouTube campaigns.
  • Comfort working with data, performance metrics, dashboards, and structured reporting.
  • Strong program management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and drive execution independently.
  • Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and client-facing skills.
  • A proactive, analytical mindset with the ability to make decisions and adapt quickly in a fast-moving environment.
  • The ability to remain calm, composed, and solution-oriented under pressure.
  • Experience in a product role is a plus.

You’ll Thrive Here If You:

  • Take ownership of outcomes rather than focusing only on tasks.
  • Enjoy understanding the why behind business performance, not just reporting the numbers.
  • Are equally comfortable working with data, strategy, marketing, sales, and clients.
  • Can turn ambiguity into structured plans and decisive action.
  • Take initiative, move quickly, and solve problems without waiting for instructions.
  • Want to build broad business expertise and grow into larger business, growth, or leadership roles.
