Strategy & Growth manager driving AI-enabled GTM, revenue, and profitability.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Strategy and Growth Manager at Hindalco (Aditya Birla Group), where I lead program management for 30 NPD projects by defining 20 KPIs and deploying automated cross-functional dashboards. I’ve driven major business wins—Hindalco’s masterbrand launch with 30M+ digital reach, value-based pricing that improved profitability by 7%, and a global GTM plan handling ~$9.6Mn sales across regions.
I also build the systems behind growth: I ran PMO for a Gen-AI sales platform across 4 verticals, synthesizing 50+ user inputs into feature briefs and reducing cycle time by 20%. Prior experience spans recruitment strategy and omnichannel sales channel design (1000+ advisor hiring), institutional sales strategy, and supply-chain execution like freight pricing model backtesting with 90% accuracy—backed by an analytical ML foundation (YOLO-based distance monitoring).
