/ / What I do at Synechron

Head of Sustainable Finance

I joined Synechron 11 years back straight after having completed my MBA from Nyenrode Business University. In last 11 years I have worked at leading financial institutions in various roles. I have been passionate about Sustainability since my undergrad days, but never formally picked it up as a topic till recently. In Sustainable Finance (SF) and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) I finally found my nesting or resting place. The Sustainable Finance practice that I lead covers the complete spectrum ranging from Sustainable Finance regulatory compliance to embedding ESG in the DNA of the organization. Being part of Sustainable Finance endeavor at Synechron also gives that sense of satisfaction, that we are doing our little bit (what we owe to mother nature).

A DAY IN THE LIFE

Consulting our clients in recognizing the value creation opportunities embedded in ESG and sustainable finance

/ / Why I joined Synechron

We found each other

I completed my masters right when the 2008 crisis hit the market. Wanted to start my career in business consulting and let's say Synechron and me found each other. This does not dilute the fact that it has been an exhilarating journey so far. I have had great experience both in terms of job satisfaction and meeting fantastic people.

/ / My Skills, Qualifications And Experience

Getting the job done

I might not be the most meticulous person but have an uncanny knack of getting the job done by whatever means necessary. I have acquired a diverse skillset thanks to my education and experience. From being a trainee fighter pilot, an engineer, software developer, MBA and finally working in the financial services industry I have travelled "the road not taken" as Robert Frost would say. I thrive in a multi-cultural environment with diverse view and a challenging task ahead.

/ / MY PERSONAL INTERESTS

Sports (cricket, table tennis, tennis), Foodie (including cooking), International Politics and Day Dreaming

If people ask me “what keeps you awake in the night?”, a cricket match next day morning. Avid Foodie (I am a lacto-ovo-vegetarian). Interested in international politics and affairs. Day dreaming can be about anything and everything under the sun (that is the reason in my personal capacity I try to be involved with startups as much as possible).
