Shashank J. — CEO
A purpose-driven business and digital transformation leader with 15+ years of extensive experience of driving growth across Energy, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas, Metals & Mining, and EPC sectors in EMEA markets. My career spans operational leadership, consulting, enterprise sales, and P&L management across grographies — enabling me to operate at the intersection of business strategy and technology execution. Currently leading the Manufacturing & Energy vertical at Hitachi Digital Services, I oversee end-to-end P&L responsibility, new logo acquisition, expansion of strategic accounts, and ecosystem partnerships across EMEA. I work closely with C-Suite executives to shape digital strategy, build future-ready roadmaps, and deliver value through seamless execution. My focus is on long-term value creation, market expansion, and building trusted executive relationships that convert vision into scalable business outcomes. I am passionate about shaping digital-first enterprises, strengthening GTM strategies, and building high-performing multicultural teams that thrive on accountability, innovation, and customer success. I believe in leading with clarity, empathy, and a value-driven partnership approach. My career journey - from a shop floor manager to an account executive with P&L responsibility has been enthralling, enriching and challenging as well. Being on both side of the table has given me a unique perspective which helped me appreciate the opportunities and challenges in Business and Technology, Having led and integrated a multi-ethnic diverse team across geographies, building a culture of trust, empathy, customer centricity and innovation, I strongly believe that 'a team is only as strong as its weakest player' If your organization is focused on growth, modernization, or transformation and would like to explore synergies, I’d welcome a conversation.
