WORK HISTORY
Business Transformation Leader India Strategy & Growth @Orica
Hyderabad, IN
Building India\'s Future — From the Ground UpI led the end-to-end establishment of two greenfield manufacturing plants — mission-critical assets in India\'s industrial transformation journey. This was not project management. This was strategic leadership at its most demanding: simultaneously navigating capital allocation, project execution, regulatory clearances, and governance frameworks across high-stakes timelines where delay has a cost and failure is not an option.Every decision — from site selection to go-live — carried board-level consequence. I owned them all.These plants are not just operational assets. They represent India\'s strategic self-reliance in a sector where supply chain resilience is now a national priority.Risk, Governance & Resilience - Reduced business risk exposure by 30% through the design and implementation of commercial governance frameworks that are built to be used, not filed away- Integrated new products, technology platforms, and operating models into a scalable business architecture — because sustainable growth needs infrastructure, not just ambition
