Manager - Commercial Business Operations - IIM/ISB/MDI/FMS

The Opportunity:

Lenovo is looking for a high-potential strategy professional to work closely with the India Commercial Leader and Leadership Team.

You will have direct exposure to strategic priorities and important business decisions, helping convert leadership intent and business signals into clear recommendations, aligned execution and measurable outcomes.

This is not a reporting, coordination or administrative role.

You will be expected to ask the questions that sharpen decisions, constructively challenge assumptions, and drive selected cross-functional projects across sales, segments, regions, business groups, channel, marketing, finance and operations.

What You Will Own:

- Support annual and quarterly business planning, strategic priorities and leadership reviews.

- Lead high-priority strategic and transformation projects from problem definition through execution.

- Analyze business performance, market trends and competitive signals, translating data into clear recommendations.

- Create sharp executive presentations, decision papers and business narratives for senior stakeholders.

- Frame important decisions by separating facts, assumptions, options, trade-offs and recommendations.

- Drive cross-functional alignment on outcomes, owners, milestones, dependencies and success measures.

- Track critical commitments, surface risks early and help remove execution bottlenecks.

- Use AI and structured problem-solving to improve the speed and quality of analysis, communication and execution.

- Constructively challenge established thinking when evidence suggests a better course of action.

What We Are Looking For:

- Looking for Tier 1 MBA students.

- 6 - 12 years of relevant experience in management consulting, corporate strategy, business transformation, business management, commercial operations or strategic project roles.

- Full-time MBA or equivalent postgraduate management qualification from a leading global or Indian institution.

- Exceptional candidates with comparable experience are also encouraged to apply.

- Strong analytical ability, commercial judgment and comfort working with ambiguous business problems.

- Excellent executive communication and advanced PowerPoint skills, with the ability to turn complex information into clear, compelling leadership presentations.

- Practical proficiency with AI tools to accelerate research, analysis, synthesis and creation of high-quality business content, combined with disciplined validation of outputs.

- Experience working with senior leaders and influencing stakeholders without formal authority.

- Demonstrated ability to move from recommendation to implementation and measurable impact.

- Intellectual honesty and the confidence to challenge assumptions constructively.

- B2B go-to-market exposure is preferred; technology, devices, infrastructure, services or adjacent-sector experience is an advantage.

You Will Thrive Here If You:

- Are intellectually curious, ambitious and eager to learn the business end to end.

- Bring structure to ambiguity and focus discussions on decisions and outcomes.

- Can challenge senior stakeholders respectfully, using evidence and sound business judgment.

- Are equally comfortable with data, executive communication and execution detail.

- Take ownership, handle sensitive information with discretion and deliver at pace.

- Use AI as a thinking and productivity partner, not as a substitute for judgment.

- Want to build towards broader leadership roles in strategy, transformation, commercial operations or a line business
