We are seeking an accomplished industry leader to join our leadership team as Co-Founder & Chief Revenue Officer (CRO).
This is a Board-level leadership role for an executive who has successfully built and scaled businesses—not simply led sales teams.

The successful candidate will work closely with the Founder, Board of Directors, and investors, and will be directly accountable to the Board for achieving the Company's commercial objectives and long-term growth strategy.
This role is intended for a leader capable of helping build an institution, not simply managing an existing business or bringing new business.

- Contribute to fundraising, investor engagement, and strategic planning as part of the executive leadership team.
Mandatory Experience
We are specifically looking for candidates who possess:
- 5-10+ years of leadership experience within polymers, plastics, polyurethane foam, specialty chemicals, additives, masterbatches, compounding, or allied industries. (Relevant industry experience is a must, candidate must be from the mentioned industry only).
- Demonstrated success in scaling businesses previously and delivering substantial revenue growth.
- Significant experience in commercial strategy, business transformation, market expansion, and organizational leadership.
- Proven P&L ownership and accountability for business performance.
- Experience engaging with Boards of Directors, promoters, investors, and executive leadership teams.
- Strong understanding of strategic planning, channel development, pricing, partnerships, and enterprise sales.
- Existing relationships across major OEMs, processors, converters, manufacturers, distributors, and strategic industry players.
- Excellent leadership, negotiation, communication, and decision-making capabilities.
- Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to thrive in a high-growth, fast-paced environment.
This Role Is NOT Intended For
- Professionals whose experience is limited to field sales or regional sales management.
- Candidates without demonstrated strategic leadership or business-building experience.
- Executives who have not owned P&L, organizational growth, or enterprise-scale commercial functions.
What We Offer
- Co-Founder opportunity.
- Significant ESOPs / Equity participation.
- Competitive executive compensation.
- Direct engagement with the Board of Directors and institutional investors.
- Opportunity to shape the future of a VC-funded deep-tech company with global ambitions.
- A leadership role in building one of India's next-generation specialty materials companies from scale-up to IPO.
If you have the strategic vision, commercial leadership, and entrepreneurial mindset to build a category-defining company, we would like to hear from you.
