At Birla Estates Private Limited (Aditya Birla Group), I ran the annual talent cycle for 150 employees, from eligibility identification and assessment through Talent Councils and succession documentation.

I delivered 60+ learning programs annually across five locations and launched Building Enterprise Leaders, an 18-month P&L-focused leadership program for high-potential employees.

I also built a six-part site visit evaluation system for graduate engineer trainees and coordinated Development Assessment Centres for 50 talent pool members.

I owned the central L&D and Talent budget, automated Training MIS with IT, and maintained Power BI dashboards. Earlier, as a Human Resource Intern – Learning & Development at Mahindra Group, I built digital learning content and administered initiatives reaching hundreds of participants.
