Outreach Lead

About Mesa

Mesa School of Business is a new-age business school based in Bengaluru that focuses on developing startup leaders through an immersive, hands-on approach to learning. Founded by Harvard alumnus Ankit Agarwal and Kellogg alumnus Varun Limaye on a mission to redefine leadership for India's startup era. Mesa is backed by an extensive network of India’s leading startup founders, including leaders from CRED, Meesho, Paytm, Urban Company, Swiggy, and over 50 other entrepreneurs. 

Its philosophy centers on “learning by building,” where students learn directly from 100+ startup founders through case-based classes, work on live business challenges with high-growth startups, gain practical sales experience, and receive mentorship through an in-house startup incubator and fund. Outcomes here aren't just placements; instead they are measured by the responsibility you earn through founder-facing roles, real ownership, and the ability to make decisions that move business.

It's a career catalyst that will unlock doors in India's thriving startup scene  for people who want to build and lead India's next wave of startups. The curriculum is further supported by structured career preparation, startup internships, and extensive mock interview training to prepare students for roles in Founder’s Office, Product, Venture Capital, and entrepreneurship.

Programs offered by Mesa include:

Post Graduate Program (PGP) in Startup Leadership

Undergraduate Program (UG) in Business Management & Entrepreneurship

PGP Forge -Postgraduate Program in Venture Building for Fresh Graduates
Future Founders Summer School - Entrepreneurship program for high school students

Whom are we looking for?

We're looking for someone who thrives on building relationships and owning outreach end-to-end, someone equally comfortable planning a pan-India strategy and showing up in person to represent Mesa at a school event. You should have a sharp sense for identifying the right student persona, a knack for turning conversations with schools, counselors, and consultants into lasting partnerships, and the rigor to track and optimize a funnel that spans multiple touchpoints. If you enjoy working closely with leadership to conceptualize flagship initiatives and have (or want to build) a deep, on-ground understanding of India's school ecosystem -  boards, academic calendars, and regional nuances included -  this role is for you.


Core Responsibilities

• Pan-India School Outreach: Plan and execute outreach initiatives across schools in India and outside to engage students matching our target persona.

• Relationship Management: Build and nurture strong partnerships with schools, career counsellors, and educational consultants to enhance brand credibility.

• Event Representation: Represent Mesa School of Business at education fairs and school events, while managing a structured monthly calendar to track all engagements.

• Strategic Initiatives: Conceptualise and drive flagship programs, including the High School Pitching Challenge and Summer School, in close collaboration with the MSB leadership team.

• Ecosystem Expertise: Maintain a deep understanding of the school landscape, including regional academic calendars, boards, and grade dynamics.

• Be part of building a new model of business education.
