About Koushik Das

I am a global finance transformation leader with over two decades of experience building and scaling high-impact finance capabilities within complex, regulated environments. My work centers on designing greenfield global capability centres and evolving them from execution-focused setups into review-led, end-to-end delivery hubs with direct client ownership. I bring deep expertise in finance operating model design, capacity-based planning, and cost structure optimization, consistently aligning people, process, & technology to business outcomes. My background spans financial reporting, fund administration, middle-office operations, FP & A, and KYC/AML, underpinned by strong risk, control, and governance frameworks. I am known for leading large-scale transitions, strengthening review & assurance layers, embedding disciplined transition governance, and enabling sustainable scale through automation and AI-led simplification.

Experience

1. Vice President

   State Street

   Jul 2016 — Present · Bengaluru, IN

   In this role, I am responsible for building, stabilizing, and scaling complex finance delivery capabilities within a highly regulated global environment. My focus has been on designing operating models that progressively moved offshore teams from execution-oriented preparation work into review-led and client-facing delivery ownership. I played a central role in establishing financial reporting and audit-related capabilities from the ground up, shaping governance structures, transition frameworks, and risk controls that met both regulatory and client expectations. The role requires close engagement with global stakeholders, auditors, and regulators, alongside ownership of capacity planning, budgeting discipline, and delivery assurance. I have driven transformation initiatives across reporting processes, automation adoption, and workforce optimization, while strengthening people governance through structured performance management, leadership development, and engagement frameworks
