AGM - Operations

THE ROLE
Mirchandani Group is seeking a hands-on operating leader who can convert management priorities into clear plans, ownership and closure across active developments. This is not a purely administrative or site-construction role. The AGM will create visibility across design, procurement, contracts, billing, approvals and execution, anticipate constraints and ensure decisions translate into action.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
· Run the operating rhythm across Mumbai projects through weekly reviews, trackers, dashboards, action logs and disciplined escalation.
· Integrate project schedules across design releases, approvals, procurement, work orders, execution, billing, handover and close-out.
· Drive procurement planning: package strategy, BOQ readiness, tender comparisons, negotiations, award timelines, long-lead tracking and vendor performance.
· Strengthen contract administration, variation control, reconciliation, billing turnaround and cost-to-complete visibility in coordination with site, billing and finance teams.
· Identify upcoming constraints before they affect site progress; assign owners, obtain decisions and follow through to closure.
· Coordinate architects, consultants, contractors, internal project teams and directors without allowing accountability to become diluted.
· Standardise practical SOPs, MIS formats and review systems across projects while keeping reporting lean and decision-oriented.
· Support project handover, snag closure, statutory/document close-out and lessons learned.
· Build team capability, clarify roles and hold managers accountable to measurable commitments.
· Use technology and AI-enabled tools where they reduce manual follow-up, improve control or increase management visibility.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
· Management receives one reliable view of priorities, delays, costs, decisions and ownership.
· Procurement, drawing, billing and site dependencies are identified weeks ahead rather than after work stops.
· Reviews result in documented decisions and closure, not repeated discussion.
· Project controls improve without creating a paperwork-heavy bureaucracy.
EXPERIENCE & CAPABILITIES
· 12-18 years in project operations, project controls or development management with a credible real-estate developer or PMC; Mumbai experience strongly preferred.
· Strong working knowledge of high-rise residential or mixed-use delivery, consultant coordination, contracts, procurement, billing and handover.
· Commercially sharp: able to read BOQs, comparative statements, work orders, cash-flow and cost reports, and question inconsistencies.
· Strong Excel and presentation skills; comfort with planning/project software and modern digital tools.
· Degree in Civil Engineering; postgraduate qualification in construction/project management is advantageous.
PERSONAL ATTRIBUTES
· High ownership and personal integrity.
· Calm but demanding follow-through.
· Comfortable moving between site detail and director-level decisions.
· Structured, concise communicator who escalates with facts and options.
