Pooja Tejwani
@poojatejwani
Executive Assistant and Chief of Staff automating C-suite operations across regulated, global, multi-time-zone environments.
What I'm looking for
I’m Pooja Tejwani, a trusted right-hand partner supporting VP/SVP/C-suite leaders at Arrow Electronics (eInfochips), managing executive diary, inbox, telephone screening, board pack preparation, report writing, minute-taking, and executive correspondence across 15+ time zones.
I’ve built measurable operational impact by automating 15+ business processes with Microsoft Copilot Pro and Power Automate, saving 20+ hours weekly and reducing operational overhead by 40%, including RPA workflows for approvals, reporting, correspondence, and SharePoint administration.
In pharma and healthcare settings, I’ve supported FDA- and GxP-regulated board governance and compliance—handling sensitive documentation, audit trail management, GDPR-compliant data handling, PO compliance in SAP, and HIPAA readiness—while deputising for senior leadership during transitions.
I also support business outcomes: I generated INR 10Cr+ in new business contracts by coordinating high-stakes stakeholder meetings, executive decks, proposals, and follow-up workflows, and I lead crisis/business continuity responses—coordinating remote and hybrid teams of 200+ within 48 hours.
