About Ajay
A career built on experience.
Three decades across industries, now focused on boards, education and careers.
I have worked across insurance, telecom, technology, automotive, FMCG and paints — leading teams and building functions in varied markets.
Most recently at HDFC ERGO General Insurance, my work spanned workplace management, wellbeing, CSR, procurement and government business. Earlier roles included Samsung , Reliance and Castrol.
Today, I bring that operating perspective to board and advisory conversations, management education and career coaching.
