Key Responsibilities:

Organize and lead awareness sessions, conduct door-to-door campaigns, and actively participate in local events to effectively promote the BDA training programs.
- Candidate Identification & Enrollment: Systematically identify eligible and interested youth based on established program criteria (e.g., age, educational background, family background, income). Clearly explain the program benefits, structure, and the comprehensive placement support available to potential candidates and their families, including conducting essential parent meetings. Facilitate the entire enrollment and onboarding process, ensuring all necessary documentary validation is meticulously in place.
- Lead Generation & Conversion: Be accountable for generating a consistent and high-quality pipeline of leads (e.g., aiming for at least 60 quality leads per week) and converting these leads into successful enrollments (e.g., converting at least 25 students for a batch to be initiated). Actively seek and obtain referrals from program alumni and current students to expand the outreach network.
- Relationship Building & Credibility: Build and nurture strong, trusted relationships with key community leaders, local NGOs, Self-Help Groups (SHGs), local authorities, and influential figures within the target communities. Work diligently to create awareness and build robust credibility for the Angel One Foundation and its programs within the community. Consistently act as a positive role model for aspiring youth.
- Database Management & Reporting: Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of all outreach and mobilization efforts. Regularly update the Management Information System (MIS) with enrollment data, follow-up statuses, and youth profiles. Provide timely and insightful reports on community outreach activities and progress towards targets.
- Coordination & Problem Solving: Work in close coordination with the Centre Head and other internal team members (trainers, placement team) to ensure a seamless transition for candidates through the training lifecycle. Collaborate effectively with Community Resource Persons (CRPs) in the field. Proactively anticipate, identify, and work towards resolving any issues or challenges posed by the community. Address and resolve community grievances in a timely and sensitive manner.
- Social Media & Communications: Document compelling social impact stories and success stories from the center to share with the Head Office for social media and broader communication.

Manage and distribute communication collaterals effectively with minimal wastage.
