Inclusion @ Godrej: Building an Inclusive Future: GCPL’s Early Talent Ecosystem

GCPL has built a future-ready, inclusive talent ecosystem by designing and executing structured, high-impact campus and traineeship programs across functions. In finance roles, the Industrial Trainee Launchpad program onboarded eight trainees. Participants undergo CA Masterclasses, Finance Bootcamps, and Learning Circles, building deep technical and business acumen. The programme has already delivered tangible outcomes, with two conditional offers converted, including one All India Rank, and one woman candidate. For research and development, the team implemented a structured campus program, engaging premier institutions such as NIT Trichy, NIT Rourkela, Manipal University, and NIPER to secure high-potential talent. Eight trainees completed a rigorous nine-month immersion. Despite niche roles, the team successfully closed 21 positions, the highest ever in a year, with 67% overall representation and 60% at L2+ levels, ensuring a strong future bench. GCPL strengthened their design capability through campus engagements with institutes like NID Ahmedabad, MIT Pune, and Whistling Woods. Over 18 months, three full-time hires were onboarded with 66% diversity representation. Additionally, a structured intern programme onboarded seven interns, achieving 71% diversity representation.
