About

I lead leadership hiring for Godrej Industries Group, partnering closely with business leaders to build out senior teams across the portfolio. Over the past 16 years, across startups, large conglomerates and family-run businesses, I’ve learnt that leadership hiring is rarely about just filling a role. It is about understanding context, asking the right questions early, and making calls that hold up over time. My work spans FMCG, real estate, pharma and emerging sectors, with a strong focus on long-term fit, succession, and the role leadership plays in shaping business outcomes.

AVP & Head - Leadership Hiring

Aug 2023Present · 2 yrs 9 mos · Mumbai · On-site

  • Leading leadership hiring across Godrej Industries Group, managing CXO and senior leadership mandates globally. The work goes beyond execution, it is about understanding the context behind each role, aligning early with business leaders, and making calls that stand the test of time.
  • I work closely with business and Group HR on succession pipelines and evaluation approaches, bringing more structure to senior hiring while keeping it grounded in real business needs.
  • Over the years, I’ve built leadership teams across FMCG, chemicals, real estate, agri, financial services and asset management.
  • A key focus area has been improving representation of women in leadership roles, not just by widening pipelines, but by staying engaged through the decision-making process and influencing outcomes where it matters.
  • I have also been closely involved in GLF succession mapping and in shaping a more considered, advisory-led approach to partnering with leaders.
