About

With nearly 5 years of experience in the recruitment industry, I have progressed from a Management Trainee to Associate Recruiter and currently serve as Manager - HR (Domestic & Global hiring). I hold a PGDM in Human Resources from JK Business School (2021), and have further enhanced my expertise with certifications in Digital Marketing from IIM Bangalore and Google. Throughout my career, I have been committed to identifying top-tier talent for clients while fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment for my team. My passion lies in empowering individuals to realize their potential, both within my team and across the organizations I support. I have also contributed to academic discourse, presenting a research paper on the market challenges faced by Huawei mobiles in India at an international conference. My dedication and leadership have been recognized through several prestigious honors, including the President Scout Award (conferred by the then President of India, Pratibha Patil) and the Rajyapuraskar (awarded by the former Governor of Kerala, R. S. Gavai). I was responsible for overseeing the end-to-end operations of the organization, which included team leadership, client relationship management, recruitment strategy, revenue generation, and internal project execution. I specialized in managing mid to senior-level corporate hiring across diverse sectors such as Retail, FMCG, Aviation, Infrastructure, Healthcare, and Hospitality. Fluent in Malayalam, English, and Tamil, I bring strong communication and cultural adaptability to every engagement.
