At Nurture and Foster, our greatest asset is our people. True to our People First Policy, we have cultivated a work culture that puts employee well-being, growth, and empowerment at the forefront. We believe that when our team thrives, our clients and community benefit too. What does a people-first culture look like at NF? It means open communication, mutual respect, and a supportive environment where every team member’s voice is heard. We strive to nurture and foster (no pun intended!) each individual’s potential. Managers involve team members in decisions and encourage leadership at all levels. We celebrate diversity and ensure inclusivity – our team comes from different regions and backgrounds, reflecting the India we serve. The result is a workplace buzzing with collaboration and new ideas. As one industry leader aptly noted, a people-first policy breeds a “culture of innovation, collaboration and reward” – and we see that daily at NF. From brainstorming sessions to field trips, we maintain a camaraderie that often feels like a family. We also care about our employees’ life beyond work: flexible schedules, wellness initiatives, and opportunities to pursue further education are ways we support a healthy work-life balance.
Being a young and fast-growing firm, NF offers tremendous growth opportunities for professionals at all stages of their career. When you join us, you’re not just filling a role – you’re encouraged to carve out a career path aligned with your passions. Our project roster is diverse and impactful, meaning you might one day be working on a policy blueprint for a state government and the next on a field pilot in a village – each experience honing new skills. Such exposure accelerates learning and development. We invest heavily in training, whether it’s sending team members for specialized certifications, bringing experts for in-house workshops, or providing one-on-one mentoring with senior leaders. Performance at NF is recognized and rewarded – meritocracy is a key principle. As we scale, leadership and entrepreneurial opportunities abound; many of our early hires have quickly grown into project leads and practice heads. We also have a culture of innovation where if you have an idea (say, a new service offering or an improvement in process), you’ll find management receptive and ready to help you implement it. In short, NF is a place where you can shape your own growth while making a real difference in society. For young professionals and seasoned experts alike, the journey here is filled with challenges that will stretch you and support that will help you rise to the occasion.
