Our Thesis

100,000 villages in rural India are still waiting for their moment to flourish. We believe that moment doesn't come from one fix. It comes from Samaj, Sarkar and Bazar, working together, and it comes faster when good people choose to spend their careers making it happen.

Before you apply, get to know us.

Our Annual Report shows you where we work, what we’ve built, and what’s next. It’s the fastest way to see if TRI feels like home, before you send that application.

Why TRI

The Living Weave

Welcoming to Women
We keep our doors open for women coming back to work after a break. Your career doesn’t have an expiry date, and neither does your talent.
A Close-Knit Team
You won’t be doing fieldwork alone. Our teams work shoulder to shoulder, and someone’s always got your back.
Fair Pay

We pay well, in line with the best in the development sector, because your work and your worth matter to us.

Work-Life Balance
Family time isn’t something you fit in around work here. It’s part of how we plan our days.
Thinkers Who Do

We like people who can think deeply and still get their hands dirty. Every role here asks for both.
