What I'm looking for

I seek senior communications roles driving employer brand, transformation and executive storytelling in global, matrixed organisations focused on measurable reputation and engagement outcomes.

I am a strategic communications leader with over two decades of experience shaping enterprise storytelling, employer branding and large-scale transformation campaigns for Global Capability Centers and Fortune 500 organisations. I have led award-winning programs—securing recognition such as NASSCOM GCC Awards, CIO100, Zinnov and the Gartner Communications Award—by designing narrative-driven campaigns that elevated executive visibility and strengthened organisational reputation.

I build integrated communication strategies across multi-country environments, driving EVP development, change adoption, crisis communications and digital content impact to improve engagement for thousands of employees. I have led global teams and agency ecosystems, enabled Great Place to Work certification efforts, and delivered measurable outcomes in reputation, employee advocacy and transformation readiness.
