I build HR operations, talent systems, and compliant employee experiences from the ground up.
What I'm looking for
At Prudential plc, I’m helping stand up the India Health business entity by building HR operations, Workday, compliance frameworks, and policies for a ~150-headcount organization. I also lead HR operations and benefits for a ~250-employee GCC, connecting HR, Finance, HR Tech, and business leaders.
I’ve improved HR delivery across Tata Trusts, Danone India, Godrej & Boyce, and ITC. My work includes reducing recruitment and HR operations turnaround time by 25%, designing PwD hiring plans, building recruitment pipelines, and shaping learning, succession, and talent-management systems.
I enjoy creating practical HR processes that help organizations grow: workforce planning, benefits design, policy development, employee lifecycle management, compliance, and inclusive talent initiatives.
