About

Strategic leader with 20+ years of experience driving talent acquisition, client engagement, and business growth in the IT recruitment and consulting space. I’ve led high-impact staffing operations across India and Europe, with proven success in delivery management, new client acquisitions, and key account leadership. Adept at building and mentoring high-performing teams, I specialize in leadership hiring, diversity recruitment, and end-to-end operational oversight — including escalations, pilot projects, and BOT transitions. My strengths lie in blending delivery excellence with sales strategy, consistently driving value across global markets including India, Germany, Poland, Romania, the USA, and broader Europe. I thrive in stakeholder management, vendor partnerships, and cross-border hiring using platforms like LinkedIn, Hirist, and iimjobs. Multilingual and culturally attuned.
