About Navonil D.
Summary:8+ years navigating diverse roles at various industries / functions including Consumer Goods, Digital Marketing, FP & A and Strategy. I\'m extremely passionate about leveraging data, automation, and cross-functional collaboration to drive impactful business decisions and operational efficiency. At Google, I\'ve worked on a range of initiatives; from creating marketing strategies for top Google Ads clients (Literally some of the biggest companies in the world) to my current focus on \"Finance x strategy\" within the Ads ecosystem and \"AI for Finance\" initiative at Google. Current role:I\'ve been working within Ads Finance, at a newly envisioned FinTech role where I get to apply a \"Finance x strategy\" lens to help define & measure commercial success for Ads Leadership at Google. This involves partnering with senior leaders and teams across Business, Strat-ops, Sales, Product and Finance to develop data-driven insights on investment approaches, build analytical models and design / create the central intelligence frameworks for the Ads Finance ecosystem; all the while ensuring accuracy, granularity as well as scalability.Previous Experiences:Google:Previously, as a Digital Marketing Strategist, I developed and executed Business & Marketing strategies for top Google advertisers, achieving significant client growth and multi-million dollar wins. Subsequently, as the Central Planning Lead for the US LeadGeneration Business, I bridged Ads product priorities (like PMax, Smart Bidding, Measurement etc.) with operational planning, designing and scaling solutions aimed at faster GTM, sales-led fast starts, real time headroom surfacing and granular product opportunity identification. This role also involved designing and creating user friendly automated tools and solutions.Godrej Consumer Products:Launched my career in the CPG sector at Godrej Consumer Products Ltd.(GCPL), starting with an internship in marketing with hair care brand BBlunt, followed by a PPO. After sales management traineeship, I briefly worked on a marketing program execution project for brand expansion in West Africa. Subsequently, as an Area Sales Manager in North-East, I led a team of 10, managing sales, distribution, and channel partners for 500+ SKUs across multiple categories. During this time, I expanded GCPL\'s footprint in North-East; expanding retail coverage by 2x, boosting market share of soaps, establishing chemist channel as well as modernizing infra by bringing real-time DMS coverage to all seven states.
