Sampark Foundation Today
 
Sampark Foundation, now a Harvard Business School Case study on Frugal Innovation creating large scale impact is largely a self-funded organisation founded by Anupama Nayar and Vineet Nayar with a belief that cutting-edge, frugal innovation is the only way to solve problems at scale. The programs have been rolled out across 109,000 schools in 8 states of Chhattisgarh, Uttarakhand, Jharkhand, Haryana, Himachal, Utter Pradesh, Rajasthan and Maharashtra and based on MOUs signed till date the program is expected to reach 200,000 schools and impact lives to 2 cr children in a meaningful way.
 
Role of Head HR?
 
Sampark Foundation believes that the impact the program is creating on the ground could be far better than what it is today if we are able to hire and inspire over 500 Sparks working out of 150 remote locations through a dedicated team of 5 HR professionals. We are a fast-growing organisation that is very dynamic and fast moving with an Employee First Culture. We are looking for Head HR who can manage the scale up of this organisation along with executing strategies to retain the core culture which is key reason for our success. With attrition in single digits and employee satisfaction at very high levels we have done well in HR however the challenge is to retain that as we scale up through systems, processes, and new ideas.
