Who am I ? Three words to define me: Permanent Student, Minimalist, Empathetic Human ! I am a seasoned HR professional, with 16+ years of industry experience across sectors. But I am no expert, instead a learning fellow of the subject, I always will be. Currently, I am working with some awesome folks at 91springboard, India's most loved and joyful Co-working space, heading the People & Culture function with key responsibility of building a high performing team and a great workplace culture. I have been working with some great minds here to design the HR function from scratch. We take pride in having some of the most refined HR processes in the industry with a empathetic and Human approach. Because the key value we live by is - Do right by the people. I have contributed in designing the People processes, Rewards philosophy, Organisation Design, Performance culture, HR Technology Systems with an additional responsibility to lead and mentor the overall People Operations team. In the previous stint, I had worked with BNY Mellon as a Country Compensation & Benefits Lead & a Consultant to its Investment Management & Corporate functions businesses in India. I also played a key role to bring a harmonized Rewards approach across the country by working closely with Site Lead for Chennai, a new growth location for BNY Mellon. I managed an entire gamut of C & B activities including leading review and development of policies, employee benefits, pension plans, year end, market reviews, Compensation restructuring, Incentive plans etc. I possess in depth knowledge (still learning) on the Total Rewards philosophy and believe in Designing for Exemplary performance. I also take pride in getting my hands dirty, as no design is complete until the rubber hits the road. In my past assignments with ITC Infotech as India C&B & Corporate HR, I handled the entire gamut of Corporate HR, India C&B, Performance reviews, HR Operations and statutory compliance for India. I also led major projects on Payroll outsourcing, HRIS & Employee Wellbeing. In my early career days, I got the opportunity to work with the India's most trusted and loved brands-The Tatas. I joined them from campus as a Graduate Trainee for Tata Motors. This was a learning for life and best till date (As they said once a GET, Always a GET). From this experience, I gathered strong industry experience for 3 yrs as QA lead. In this role, I had evolved as a mature management professional and have extensively studied & implemented best Operations & Quality management practices in-house as well as with vendors.
