I run the Corporate Services practice at Axentia Global — a retained executive search firm focused on energy, commodities, and industrial organisations across Asia.
My work sits at the intersection of three things: senior retained search, corporate functions leadership (HR, Finance, Compliance, Regulatory), and the energy and industrial sectors that are reshaping Asia’s economic landscape.
Before Axentia, I spent years running senior search mandates with a specialist focus on HR and leadership roles across India and Southeast Asia. That background gives me a genuine peer-level understanding of how talent functions operate, how HR leaders think about hiring, and what makes a corporate functions leader succeed in a complex, matrixed organisation.
At Axentia, I use that lens to serve a different kind of client: oil and gas trading companies, and private refiners, LNG players, global commodity trading houses, and industrial firms building or upgrading their corporate functions leadership across the region.
