This is neither a conventional product-management role, a pure strategy role nor an internal consulting position. It is a “build-and-execute” role for someone who wants to create with urgency, can influence without authority, and gets things done without a detailed brief. This is a newly created role sitting in a small, high-visibility team in the CFO organization, tasked with transforming how Align goes to market through innovative business models, services and solutions. The role reports to the Senior Director, New Business Models & Services APAC, and works as a core partner to the India commercial leadership team. You will connect the India market needs with Align’s APAC and global global Business Model Innovation priorities. Working closely with commercial leaders and partners across Sales, marketing, Finance, Legal, IT, Regulatory, and other functions, you will diagnose growth blockers, develop commercial propositions, run market experiments, and turn the strongest opportunities into executable and scalable programs. Location: Bangalore, Hyderabad or Mumbai Travel: Estimated 50-60% ### Responsibilities - Embed yourself with the commercial team. Build trusted relationships. Become the person local leadership calls when they want to think about a problem differently and move towards action. - Run structured discovery to identify customer, practice, market and operational barriers to growth. - Identify and size commercial opportunities, define the customer and business value proposition, and determine where Align should invest time and resources. - Rapidly understand business models, including their economics, regulatory constraints, operating requirements, and partner ecosystems. - Build business cases and business plans covering customer value, unit economics, pricing, incentives, route to market, operating model, risks, and scalability. - Turn ambiguous opportunities into testable commercial hypotheses. Design the smallest credible market experiment, define success and failure criteria, and make evidence-based recommendations to stop, adapt, scale, or invest further. - Design & drive pilots from concept to launch, including stakeholder alignment, partner engagement, operating design, enablement, measurement, and problem solving. - Execute with urgency. Turn validated ideas into live programs, working across internal teams and external partners to make sure what gets built gets adopted. - Source, evaluate, negotiate with, and manage external partners. Translate partner capabilities into commercially and operationally viable propositions for Align and its customers. - Develop the playbooks, training, commercial enablement, and leadership materials needed to support adoption and scale. - Feed market learning into the APAC and global innovation teams so that successful models can be adapted and scaled elsewhere. ### Skills - Commercial acumen, judgment, and maturity: You think naturally about customer value, unit economics, pricing, incentives, routes to market, adoption, and value exchange, not only features and benefits. - Commercial learning agility: You can quickly understand an unfamiliar business model, its economics and regulatory constraints, identify capable partners, and translate the opportunity into an executable commercial proposition. - Hands-on execution: You are comfortable moving between a Country Leadership Team discussion and the detailed work required to build the analysis, business case, presentation, pilot plan, or partner proposition yourself. - Experimentation mindset: You work through hypotheses, evidence, iteration, and clear scale-or-stop decisions. You are comfortable making recommendations with imperfect information. - Soft power and collaboration: You earn trust, influence without authority, challenge constructively, and make people want to work with you across functions, levels, and geographies. - Comfort with ambiguity and independent working: You can prioritize a broad mandate, create structure where none exists, and maintain momentum without waiting for a detailed brief or a large support team. - Range and adaptability: You can move across financing, services, subscriptions, partnerships, systems integrations, digital workflows, and other commercial models as business needs evolve. - AI-enabled working: You use AI as a normal part of how you work, including research, analysis, synthesis, proposition development, preparation of business cases and leadership materials, and automation of repetitive work. You validate outputs and use AI responsibly within corporate confidentiality, privacy, and information-security requirements. - Strong organizational and analytical skills: You can manage budgets, resources, partners, and multiple workstreams while maintaining a clear view of priorities, dependencies, risks, and outcomes. EDUCATION AND/OR EXPERIENCE - 8 to 15 years of relevant professional experience across commercial strategy and execution, business building, general management, partnerships, product commercialization, corporate innovation, or entrepreneurial environments. - A track record of taking personal ownership for complex, cross-functional work and translating ideas or recommendations into market-facing execution. - Bachelor's degree required; MBA or equivalent a plus but not required where experience demonstrates the necessary capability. Nice to Have - Experience building or launching something from zero, whether as a founder, early-stage operator, corporate venture builder, product-commercial leader, or owner of a new market initiative. - Experience in consumer lending, patient financing, payments, BNPL, embedded finance, or other fintech-related models. - Experience in medtech, healthtech or any other regulated industry, in particular working within or alongside a DSO or multi-site dental or healthcare group. - SaaS, platform or API product management experience, particularly relevant for systems integration work. - Management consulting experience paired with meaningful implementation or operating responsibility. - Experience working in an overlay or matrix organization where influence without authority is the primary operating model. --- Data: alder (https://alderhq.app).
