About Pavanjit S Bedi

I currently serve as Chief Marketing Officer – Foods, Hindustan Unilever.Across a 20+ year career at Unilever, I’ve led some of the company’s most iconic brands across Beauty & Personal Care and now Foods — operating at the intersection of innovation, culture and commerce. Most recently, as Global Brand Vice President for Glow & Lovely, I led its global rebrand and transformation — reshaping identity, portfolio and digital mandate at scale. It was a defining journey in building a brand that could evolve with culture while driving category leadership. Prior to this, I’ve had the privilege of working on brands like Dove, Pears, Lifebuoy and Pond’s across India, Africa, Middle East and Latin America — building business growth through sharp positioning, premiumisation, purposeful innovation and disciplined execution. I’m deeply interested in how brands stay iconic in a world that moves faster every year — through sharper consumer insight, distinctive creativity and stronger digital ecosystems. Outside work, I read widely, listen obsessively to music, and have recently developed a serious respect for fitness, motivation for my innings as I craft our Food brands here at HUL.
