Salil Choudhary
@salilchoudhary
Senior Operations & CX leader building scalable systems and governance across multi-site delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’ve spent 18 years in customer operations—starting on a helpdesk floor and evolving into leadership for multi-site, multi-LOB delivery spanning 350+ people with $550K+ monthly revenue across telecom, e-commerce, and travel.
What’s stayed constant is my belief in building systems, not workarounds. I’ve stabilized accounts mid-flight, using operational discipline and audit infrastructure to prevent ~$200K in client penalties, and I’ve turned “no market-ready talent” constraints into execution by launching an internal Azure certification flywheel.
I own the commercial levers—P&L, billable hours, OT cost-benefit, incentive design, and deficit recovery—while governing cross-functional scope across WFM, QA, Training, HR, and Facilities. I also drive revenue operations outcomes, from inbound sales verticals to measurable CSAT turnaround (e.g., <58% to 66.35% in 60 days).
In recent years, I’ve added deliberate digital and AI literacy on top of operational excellence, earning Google Cloud Digital Leader, Azure AI Essentials, and GenAI certifications from Microsoft and Google. I’m also a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt and PRINCE2 trained, and I built leadership pipelines through Instructional Design—driving ~90% promotion success across 20+ batches. I’m open to Senior Operations, GCC Delivery, Transformation, and Program Leadership roles across India, the Middle East, and remote-first environments globally.
