About this role
About IndieFolio
IndieFolio is rethinking the traditional creative agency model by enabling brands to build flexible, high-performing creative teams on demand. We work with some of the biggest brands in India across design, video, and content, powered by a curated talent network and smart systems.
As we scale, culture, people systems, and talent quality become critical. We’re looking for an HR Manager who doesn’t just “run HR” but actively shapes how people experience IndieFolio—from hiring to growth to long-term engagement.
About the Role
As HR Manager – Talent & Culture, you will own the people function end-to-end. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for someone who enjoys building systems from scratch, partnering closely with leadership, and creating a workplace where people do their best work.
You’ll balance strategy + execution—from hiring and onboarding to performance cycles, engagement programs, and culture design.
This role is ideal for someone who wants real ownership and the chance to influence how a fast-growing creative-tech company scales.

- Be the go-to person for employee concerns, feedback, and conflict resolution.
Performance Management & Talent Development
- Own performance review cycles (goal setting, reviews, feedback frameworks).
- Work with managers to identify growth paths, skill gaps, and development opportunities.
- Support leadership in building high-performing, accountable teams.
- Create learning and development initiatives aligned with team needs.
HR Operations, Systems & Compliance
