Tata Steel Foundation Hiring for Manager Planning and Analytics at Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, India

WHO ARE WE: Recognising the shifts that will govern the next decade in the development space and to take forward our ambition of emerging as a thought leader of this space, Tata Steel has steadily reworked its community-led engagement strategy, synergised its operating systems and established the Tata Steel Foundation, a section 8 Company. Tata Steel Foundation (the Foundation), a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Steel Limited, was incorporated on August 16, 2016. With over 1600+ members spread over 17 units/territories and 06 states of Jharkhand, West Bengal, Odisha, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra and Punjab, the Foundation is a CSR implementing organisation focused upon co-creating solutions, with tribal and excluded communities, to address their development challenges. In FY24, the Foundation reached 4.77 million lives through its consolidated programme portfolio effectively positioned under Impact and Enterprise pathways on Public Health, Education, Livelihoods, Gender and Community Enterprise, Infrastructure and Tribal Identity, at a commitment of over 500+ Crores (INR). It is committed towards playing a larger role in India’s sustainable development as roadmap to achieving its Vision to create ‘an enlightened and equitable society where every individual realizes her potential with dignity’.

The Foundation has therefore broad-based its community engagement to effect societal changes through its national and regional change models that help consolidate diverse resource pools and multiply the impact potential on citizen’s lives. It also enables the Foundation to advocate a structure to government and other organisations working for positive change. This, in the recent times, has helped the Foundation to strategically look at emerging narratives, many of which including climate resilient livelihoods, rewilding of ecosystem, upscaling or re-purposing programmes reflect our community’s aspirations of an enlightened society.
