Kshitij Srivastava — Head of Talent
TRANSFORMING ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH STRATEGIC TALENT SOLUTIONS I design and operationalize talent architectures that enable ambitious growth. Over a 20+ year career I’ve stood up 6+ Global Capability Centers globally, taken operations from concept to 0→1,000+ people, and helped captive centres evolve from cost centres into innovation hubs. I’ve supported Fortune 500 organisations in launching and expanding offshore development centres and managed-services models, and embedded shared-services hiring systems that support true round-the-sun operations. I partner with CEOs, CHROs and boards to convert strategic imperatives — market entry, M&A, product scale or transformation — into pragmatic people blueprints: workforce planning, organisation design, leadership pipelines and TA operating models that reduce risk and accelerate value. Selected outcomes Scaled GCCs from inception to 1,000+ heads and operational readiness across 8+ countries. Delivered $50M+ in workforce cost optimisation via localisation, role rationalisation and strategic workforce planning. Built and led distributed TA organisations with ~95% retention of senior TA leaders. Led TA digital transformation (ATS, sourcing automation, analytics), reducing time-to-fill by ~40% while improving hiring-manager satisfaction and quality-of-hire.

I focus on capability uplift—training TA leaders, standardising hiring practices, and creating feedback loops so TA becomes a reliable engine for growth rather than a bottleneck. My approach is collaborative, board-level in perspective and delivery-focused in execution. If you’re exploring how talent strategy can de-risk growth or amplify a market entry, I welcome measured, strategic conversations — peer-to-peer, advisory or board-level.
