Private Jobs in Tamilnadu- Category Manager- Urban Company

We are currently looking to hire a strong candidate to join our Painting team who will work with various internal teams (across geographies) to co-create solutions with them to strengthen Urban Company.

About Urban Company:

Home services is a large, unorganized industry in India. Indian consumers spend ~ USD 30 Billion annually on home services. They largely rely on word of mouth and friends-family recommendations for search and discovery. There is no large, well run, billion-dollar Company in this category today. The industry lacks scale benefits – standardization, transparency and trust.

In the absence of organized players, the current market architecture is froth with middle-men and aggregators, who control market access and keep a lion’s share of the margins. As a result, experiences are broken for both customers and end service professionals. The industry could easily be 1.5-2x larger than it is today, if frictions in transaction journeys are removed – and experiences made more meaningful and memorable.

1) End-to-end ownership of Cleaning category in your city (The buck stops at you for this category).
