My next chapter is a long-term career in the UAE. I bring a customer-first approach and 19 years of operations and finance experience — ready to contribute at the level where I can add value fastest, and to grow with the organisation.
19 Years.
5 Chapters.
From chemical-industry sales to running multi-line insurance operations — and now a new chapter in the UAE.
Began my career in field sales as a Sales Promoter in the chemical industry — promoting adhesive products to dealers, retailers and customers, and learning first-hand how to build trust, understand customer needs and close the sale. That customer-first mindset has shaped every role since.
Started from branch finance operations — mastering cash management, bank reconciliation, premium receipt compliance and internal audit discipline across Kolkata, Patna and Gurgaon branches over 7 years. Built the operational foundation that underpins everything that followed.
Supported partner financial operations of ~AED 850M across 18 international subsidiaries spanning Africa, Middle East, Europe and Asia — using Oracle ERP for multi-country reconciliation and reporting.
Onboarded 610 partners through a standardised process, set up commission and payout structures, and kept branch budgets and receivables under control at a fast-growing general insurer.
Led multi-line insurance operations (Motor, Health, Life and SME) across India as Manager – Operations — handling ~AED 115M a month in premium and commission flows across 22+ insurers and leading a team of six.
Relocated to the UAE in October 2026. Bringing 19 years of operations, financial control and partner management experience to my next role across the GCC — ready to contribute from day one and grow with the organisation.
