Tanuj Kapilashrami — CEO
As the Chief Strategy & Talent Officer of Standard Chartered, I head Corporate Strategy, Bank-wide Transformation and Corporate functions (HR, Brand & Marketing, Corporate Affairs, Supply Chain Management and Corporate Real Estate). Leading at the intersection of strategy, transformation, people and brand, I am responsible for how the Bank develops, executes and communicates its strategy. Prior to taking on this role in 2024, I was the Bank’s Chief Human Resources Officer. And before joining Standard Chartered in 2017, I built my career in banking across multiple markets, including Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, India, and London. I am currently also a Non-Executive Director on the Board of Sainsbury’s PLC and a member of their Nomination and Remuneration Committees. In addition, I am a member of the Asia House Board of Trustees, and on the board of Vault22, an integrated digital wealth, health, and lifestyle solutions start-up. I have also previously served as an Associate Non-Executive Director on the Board of NHS England, advising the NHS on their workforce transformation agenda as well as a Board member of the UK Financial Services Skills Commission. In my first book ‘The Skills-Powered Organization: The Journey to the Next Generation Enterprise’, published by the MIT Press in 2024, my co-author and I share a practical approach to designing and activating the skills-powered organization that is pivotal for navigating the “next” of work.
