Ayush Mishra — Head of Talent
I partner with CXOs, VPs, and senior functional leaders to build critical talent across the business - spanning product, engineering, cybersecurity, revenue, finance, legal, and governance. Over the last 5+ years, I’ve supported global organisations through large-scale team build-outs, leadership hiring, and complex niche searches, working closely with senior stakeholders to translate business priorities into long-term talent decisions. My experience covers roles that directly influence growth, margin, compliance, and operational resilience, with hands-on ownership from workforce planning and market intelligence through to close and onboarding. I’ve operated across India, the US, EMEA, and APAC, partnering with senior leaders in high-growth, high-ambiguity environments where judgment, context, and speed matter more than volume. My approach is commercial and contextual - understanding how organisations make money, how risk is managed, and how leadership and governance decisions compound over time. I’m interested in conversations where talent is viewed as a strategic enabler of business outcomes, not just a hiring function.
