Bny

Vice President

Apr 2020Present · 6 yrs 1 mo · Pune, Maharashtra, India

  • Over the past five years, I’ve had the opportunity to work at the intersection of strategy, execution, and people, driving outcomes that mattered.
  • My work has ranged from deep analytical problem-solving to large-scale execution. I’ve analyzed data consumption patterns for our top clients to uncover inefficiencies, contributing to cost savings in the millions. I’ve led high-stakes prototype engagements, delivered in just five weeks by intern teams in India, proving that speed and quality can coexist when the right structure and trust are in place.
  • I’ve owned P&L responsibilities with precision and accountability, identified reconciliation gaps that protected significant value, and driven rigorous budgeting processes that informed board-level decisions. I’ve built executive packs, led agile pods that delivered measurable improvements within days, and helped shape operating models, location strategies, and large-scale hiring efforts under tight timelines.
  • Beyond numbers and frameworks, I’ve also worked across enterprise initiatives, supporting complex immigration cases, hosting large community events, solving branding challenges, and creating award-winning client videos that showcased new capabilities and thinking.
  • I’ve driven adoption of our internal AI tool, Eliza, mentored dozens of interns, collaborated with leaders across functions, and supported teams through moments of rapid change.
  • But what I value most isn’t any single project.
  • It’s the trust I’ve earned.
  • The reputation I’ve built.
  • And the people I’ve helped grow along the way.
  • I’m proud of the impact I’ve delivered, and deeply grateful to have built a strong, trusted reputation at BNY

  • I specialize in turning complex, high-volume data into clear executive insights that drive decisions, cost efficiency, and accountability at scale. Over the years, I have led end-to-end financial analysis, budgeting and forecasting, cost-benefit assessments, and expense and revenue reconciliations—often identifying gaps and inefficiencies that protected and saved significant value.
  • I have built and standardized executive-level reporting frameworks, including Monthly Business Review and Mark-to-Market decks, hiring and headcount snapshots, and KPI reference models aligned to strategic priorities. These initiatives improved consistency, reduced manual effort, and strengthened governance across leadership forums.
  • Beyond reporting, I have played a central role in resource management, vendor governance, internalization tracking, target operating model planning, restructuring and transfers, demand management, and headcount governance. I have partnered closely with business leaders to ensure decisions were grounded in accurate data, realistic capacity planning, and long-term scalability.
  • I have produced monthly leadership briefing notes that became a core part of internal communications, helping align senior leaders on priorities, risks, and direction. I have also led cost-governance initiatives, including setting up and managing PR approval processes with 100% accuracy and on-time vendor renewals.
  • During major system changes, including Workday releases, I took ownership of understanding data gaps and process breakdowns, rebuilt robust reporting mechanisms, and ensured delivery commitments were met without compromising quality.
  • Known for strong stakeholder management, resilience under pressure, and a proactive, solutions-first mindset, I bring structure to ambiguity and stability to fast-paced environments. I thrive in roles where accountability, clarity, and execution matter—and where thoughtful problem-solving leads to sustainable business outcomes.
