About India Partner Network

India Partner Network (IPN) is a tech-enabled platform incubated by Sattva Consulting to make institutional capacity building more accessible to small and mid-sized NGOs in India. Since its launch in August 2023, IPN has grown into an ecosystem of 4,000+ NGOs, 6,000+ users, and a growing network of partners and service providers. IPN supports NGOs through knowledge resources, capacity building events, assessments, service provider discovery, and ecosystem connections.

IPN is now entering its next phase of growth as it transitions into an independent Section 8 entity, ReadyNext IPN Foundation. This is a unique opportunity to join early and help shape the voice, positioning, and platform growth in India’s nonprofit ecosystem.

The Opportunity

Over the last two and a half years, the platform has grown from an early platform idea into a national digital first ecosystem reaching thousands of NGOs users and over a hundred service provider partners across India. Our next challenge is to build IPN into a trusted, recognisable, high-engagement brand that small and mid-sized NGOs actively use to become institutionally stronger.

That is where this role comes in. We are looking for a Growth Communications Lead (Senior Consultant) who can help turn IPN’s platform, products, insights, and ecosystem work into a strong market-facing narrative, and brand and communications strategy. This is a role for someone who can think like a marketer, write like a storyteller, and execute like a builder. You will help shape how IPN is understood by NGOs, partners, donors, and the larger development ecosystem. You will move IPN towards from ad hoc announcements to sharp engagement building campaigns, from product updates to adoption journeys, and from scattered stories to evidence-backed positioning.

This is not a routine communications role. It sits at the intersection of building brand, product marketing, platform adoption and ecosystem orchestration storytelling – all through platform data, user engagement and feedback and learnings from the ground. It is a chance to build the voice of a platform that is working to make nonprofit capacity building more accessible, discoverable and actionable at scale.
