## Headline

Manager \- Strategic Partnerships

## About

I am a Manager\-Strategic Partnerships with experience across BFSI, fintech, lending operations and B2B commerce\. At Mannjal Technologies, I coordinate lending programs and NBFC/lender partnerships across business, credit, operations and technology teams\. My work includes translating credit policies and partner requirements into operational workflows, business rules, SOPs, dashboards and implementation documents\. I have also built AI\-enabled workflows for business\-development research, documentation and repeatable operational activities\. By redesigning processes and creating reusable structures, I helped reduce lender\-data preparation turnaround from approximately 4–5 days to 1 day\. My key areas of experience include program delivery, NBFC and lender partnerships, credit operations, process improvement, AI workflow automation, stakeholder coordination, SOP development, MIS reporting and implementation support\. Before Mannjal, I worked with Arzooo, Udaan, Medlife and ICICI Bank across credit operations, supply\-chain operations, customer support and banking processes\.
