About

With 10+ years of experience in food tech and e-commerce, I am a passionate and self-motivated leader who oversees business development and PnL for Zomato, one of the largest online food delivery platforms in India. I have a PGDBM from NMIMS and a BE in Electronics and Communication Engineering, which equip me with the analytical and managerial skills to excel in my role. As the Regional Key Accounts Lead, I lead a team of 6 Regional Key Account Managers and take charge of the revenue amounting to 65 crores from 55 key brands. I work closely with these brands to help them with expansion, new business opportunities, and advertising ROI. I also monitor market conditions and competitor actions to adjust business strategies and market share. Additionally, I collaborate with the operational team to streamline expenses and ensure a favorable PnL. My goal is to drive Zomato's key accounts revenue with data and strategy, while delivering a satisfactory user and client experience.
