Talent Acquisition Scout

About

HR Philosophy I believe Talent acquisition team is a foundation of a good HR team. It's a process that incorporates the recruitment, retention, development and transformation of top talent in an organisation. Profile Highlights: With 11+ years of experience in Talent Acquisition, I have built and scaled hiring functions across high-growth startups and consumer businesses spanning fintech, financial services, ed-tech & e-commerce. Currently leading Talent Acquisition at Navi, I partner closely with business leaders and CXOs to solve complex talent challenges across large-scale hiring mandates. Throughout my career, I have built teams and hiring strategies for organizations at different stages of growth from building functions from scratch to supporting hyper-growth and business expansion. My expertise spans both technical and non-technical hiring across Product, Engineering, Data Science, Marketing, Sales, Operations, Risk, Compliance, Finance, HR, and Business Leadership functions. Alongside hiring delivery, I have led several Talent Acquisition transformation initiatives, including ATS implementation, AI-enabled hiring programs, assessment frameworks, recruitment analytics dashboards, employer branding, hiring governance, and process standardisation. I enjoy working at the intersection of business strategy, talent, and operations - building scalable hiring systems, enabling better decision-making through data, and creating recruitment organizations that can grow with the business.
