As Operations Head at Castrol, I lead the full spectrum of plant operations—bringing over 14 years of cross-industry manufacturing expertise to the table. Entrusted with end-to-end responsibility for safety, quality, production, maintenance, and continuous improvement, I play a key role in translating strategy into execution and driving site-wide performance.In this role, I’m not just focused on metrics—I’m committed to building a high-performance culture where people, processes, and purpose align to deliver exceptional results. I act as a change agent, consistently identifying new opportunities for improvement and enabling teams to challenge the status quo.Leadership Highlights & Strategic Initiatives: • Led operational turnaround initiatives, delivering year-on-year improvements in OEE, productivity, and delivery performance. • Spearheaded plant-wide cost optimization programs, driving operational expenditure (OPEX) savings through lean implementation, waste reduction, and process innovation. • Introduced and institutionalized a Manufacturing Excellence roadmap, with TPM, 5S culture, and structured DWM. • Successfully established a strong TEI culture, enabling frontline teams to lead Kaizens, quality circles, and improvement projects. • Actively coached and mentored cross-functional leaders in problem-solving, visual management, and team-based decision-making. • Elevated plant governance and accountability through data-driven reviews, tier meetings, and integrated performance tracking. • Strengthened Quality Management Systems (ISO 9001:2015) and ensured compliance through rigorous audits, preventive actions, and continuous monitoring.I bring a seasoned leadership perspective, honed through experiences at Alstom, Tata Motors, and TVS Motors, and I thrive in roles where the mandate is to lead change, build capability, and unlock performance.
