Job Description

Position Title: DGM Talent Management & Organizational Effectiveness

Reporting To: Head HR NTBI

Location: Chennai

Role Purpose (Why this role exists)
To architect and drive NTBI's integrated talent strategy, ensuring that performance, potential, and culture are not siloed but fused into a cohesive engine that fuels business agility. This role is tasked with moving beyond traditional HR metrics to create a self-sustaining talent ecosystem that anticipates future skill demands, de-risks leadership pipelines, and embeds inclusion into the organizational DNA.

Core Scope of Accountability
1. Performance Management -
From Evaluation to Enablement

  • Implement the annual performance cycle into a continuous, real-time feedback culture rather than a once-a-year compliance event.
  • Drive the Goal Cascade across NTBI, ensuring every individual goal connects vertically to business strategy and horizontally to cross-functional alignment.
  • Implement Quality-Adjusted Performance metrics... ensuring that output is measured not just by "what" but "how," integrating behavioral competencies and values.
  • Lead the VC / Variable Pay calibration process, ensuring objective, fair, and defensible pay-for-performance decisions.

  • Identify and nurture High-Potential (HiPo) talent through structured interventions, not just assessments, but targeted developmental rotations, mentoring, and exposure.
  • Create a "Ready-Now" vs. "Future-Ready" succession dashboard, ensuring the organization never operates with a single point of failure.
  • Partner with business heads to de-risk leadership continuity, especially in high-impact engineering and R&D functions.

3. Learning & Development (L&D) - Future-Skilling at Scale

  • Shift L&D from a "training calendar" to a capability / skills-led transformation engine, focusing on future-critical capabilities

  • Establish measurable L&D ROI, linking learning completion to business outcomes (productivity, error reduction, innovation output).
  • Drive certification partnerships with leading institutes and platforms to build technical and leadership depth.

4. Career Architecture - Clarity, Mobility & Growth

  • Redesign the career framework, moving away from linear promotions to a multi-dimensional career lattice that offers lateral moves, cross-functional exposure, and skills-based progression.
  • Champion Internal Mobility & IJP as a cultural norm, not an exception, ensuring that employees see growth pathways within NTBI rather than outside.
  • Develop clear career pathways for high-demand roles with transparent competency expectations at each level.

5. DEI – Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (Embedded, Not Add-On)

  • Shift DEI from a "check-the-box" metric to a business imperative—ensuring diversity in pipelines (campus hiring, laterals, leadership succession).
  • Drive inclusive leadership by embedding DEI principles into performance assessments, hiring panels, and promotion decisions.
  • Establish measurable DEI KPIs, gender parity at leadership levels, representation of underrepresented groups in STEM roles, and equitable pay analytics.
  • Partner with Communications to tell authentic DEI stories that strengthen employer branding.

6. Culture & Employee Experience - The Invisible Force

  • Design and drive Culture Roadmap for NTBI, ensuring values are not posters but lived behaviors.
  • Lead the Employee Engagement / Pulse Survey strategy (including GES integration) and, more importantly, close the loop on Action Planning.
