What I'm looking for

I seek a senior operations or risk role where I can lead cross-functional teams, drive process and control improvements, implement ERP projects, and deliver measurable cost savings and compliance enhancements.

I am an operations and risk professional with ~10 years of experience across executive support, operations management, internal audit and process improvement. I have worked in Big Four risk advisory roles and as a senior operations leader in industry.

At DIAM Display India I reported directly to the Managing Director, led a 15-member cross-functional team, drove an ERP (EPICOR) implementation and identified 400+ process improvements to boost operational efficiency.

I have delivered measurable outcomes including INR 30 Lakhs direct cost savings and over INR 1 Crore indirect savings in one fiscal year, improved audit scores from 65% to 99%, and developed 100+ reporting and MIS templates to support decision-making.

I hold an MBA in Finance & Operations, Six Sigma Black Belt and Certified Internal Auditor credentials, and I currently work in risk consulting for the MENA region focusing on risk-based internal audit, ERM and capability building in the energy sector.
