About

With 18 years of robust experience in Human Resources, I have honed my expertise in HR Systems, Policy & Process Design, and Performance Management, among other areas. My career trajectory has provided me with diverse opportunities to lead and transform HR functions across various industries, from financial services to e-commerce and digital platforms. Currently, I serve as the DGM – HR Operations at JSW One Platforms, where I am responsible for overseeing HR operations and ensuring the seamless delivery of HR solutions across the organization. My role involves driving strategic HR initiatives that align with the business's broader goals, fostering a performance-driven culture, and spearheading HR process improvements and automation that have consistently led to significant efficiency gains. Prior to this, as the HR Operations Lead at Shaadi.com, I played a crucial role in managing HR operations, focusing on optimizing HR processes, managing employee life cycle, enhancing employee engagement, and ensuring compliance with industry standards. My time at Edelweiss Financial Services as a Specialist – HR Systems & Processes allowed me to design and implement HR technology roadmaps that supported the organization's strategic objectives. Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my ability to integrate cultural and process changes during significant organizational transitions, such as the acquisition of Resultrix by Publicis Groupe. My leadership in these areas was acknowledged during the Global ZenithOptimedia HR Conference in London, where I received recognition for best practices and data accuracy. I am passionate about leveraging HR analytics to drive informed decision-making and have consistently demonstrated my ability to align HR strategies with business needs. My approach is centered on being a strategic partner to the business, providing actionable insights, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. In addition to my professional accomplishments, I hold a PGDBA from SIES College of Management Studies and a Bachelor of Commerce from SIES College of Arts, Science & Commerce. My academic background has provided me with a strong foundation in business administration and commerce, which I continuously build upon through my professional experiences. I am committed to driving HR excellence and am always looking for new challenges that allow me to apply my skills in dynamic environments. Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate to achieve your organization's HR and business goals.
