Zomato - Program Manager

Who are we?

Zomato is an online platform that is responsible for powering amazing dining experiences for our users daily both in home and whilst dining out. We started with a vision to ensure that no one ever has a bad meal! Over 10 years Zomato has steadily built both a search and discovery platform that fuels stable and growing transaction businesses. Today Zomato has multiple products and services that ensure our users have a great experience whilst improving the food industry.

The last 5 years is where most of Zomato's growth has happened, our mission has also evolved to something exponentially greater than being a restaurant reviews and food delivery platform. We are already taking baby steps towards being the biggest farm to mouth food company in the world.

Every month, Zomato connects more than 90 million users with 1.3m restaurants globally. Zomato continuously aims to serve a bigger purpose of providing better food for all! In order to do this, we need to ensure that users have access to a wide assortment at quality restaurants that are available and accessible.

Zomans live by this, it's our bible and we aim to change industry standards based on these four factors - Availability, Assortment, Accessibility and Quality. Users need food, they need variety, they need access to it and most importantly they need it to be high quality!

We are constantly developing a combination of a healthy user ecosystem, great content and an innovative product that makes us a game changer in our field - we are transforming our markets into kitchen-less spaces that give our users a choice of cooking because they want to, not because they have to! As an employee of Zomato, you will be helping us build this vision.
