Description

About Zinnov

Zinnov is a global management consulting firm that helps organizations make decisions that actually get used — and deliver results that matter. For over two decades, we’ve partnered with leading enterprises, high-growth technology companies, and investors to answer some of the toughest questions they face:

  • Where should we invest?

  • How do we scale globally?

  • What capabilities will win in the next decade?

Our work shapes market entry strategies, global operating models, M&A decisions, and long-term growth bets. We’re known for being data-led, execution-focused, and outcome-driven — not opinion-heavy slideware.

At Zinnov, how you work matters as much as what you deliver. We value independent thinking, crisp communication, and early ownership. With 450+ professionals across 10 global offices, we work across industries including Digital Services, ER&D, Enterprise Software, Semiconductors, Healthcare, BFSI, Automotive, Media & Telecom, and Private Equity.

Zinnov isn’t for everyone. It’s for people who want steep learning curves, honest feedback, and the chance to see their work influence real business decisions — not just presentations.

Why Corporate Functions?

Zinnov’s Corporate Functions teams power how the firm delivers at scale—building the internal engine behind high-growth, high-impact work. You’ll get:

  • Hands-on ownership in running and scaling core operations (including Legal, Compliance, Risk, and Governance).
  • Exposure to end-to-end enablement models that strengthen operating engines, employee experience, and scalable processes.
  • A highly cross-functional environment with close collaboration across delivery/PMO and domain teams to drive consistent execution.

About the Role

As Manager - Legal, you will protect Zinnov’s reputation by strengthening legal risk management, compliance, and governance across the organization. You will provide proactive, business-focused legal counsel, lead contract and policy workstreams end-to-end, and build scalable processes that reinforce integrity and ethical conduct across the firm. 

This role reports into the Assistant Director – Legal and owns Corporate Legal and Compliance responsibilities, partnering closely with internal stakeholders and external counsel to drive timely, high-quality outcomes.
