BFSI Enterprise Sales Leader | 18+ Years Selling to Indian Banks, Insurers, NBFCs & Conglomerates | Complex Platform Sales Cycles | C-Suite Relationships | AI, Cloud, Data, SaaS & Infrastructure

CAREER SUMMARY

Enterprise sales leader focused on BFSI, with 18+ years in enterprise technology sales, selling into India's banks, insurers, NBFCs and financial conglomerates, across every major technology wave: core domain solutions, enterprise cloud and SaaS, digital workplace, application delivery and end user computing, and now AI. The technology has changed every few years. The complexity of selling into regulated financial institutions has not. Proven track record of leading complex enterprise sales cycles, building strategic C-suite relationships, and delivering multi-year, multi-million-dollar platform deals. Well versed in platform economics: consolidating point products into single platform purchases, capacity-based licensing, and multi-year expansion across entities within a group.

Deep familiarity with how India's financial institutions evaluate and adopt technology, engaging CIOs, CTOs, CFOs, CROs, Chief Compliance Officers, Appointed Actuaries, CISOs, Finance Controllers and Business Heads across banking, insurance and NBFC entities, and helping organizations adopt modern enterprise platforms to accelerate data-driven transformation. Strong background in strategic account development, new logo acquisition, and market creation within regulated financial environments.

Experienced in partner-led enterprise selling involving consulting partners, global SIs, and hyperscalers (AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure), across sell-through and co-sell motions.

Earned the ACCA Certificate in International Financial Reporting (Cert IFR), deepening understanding of financial reporting standards and regulatory governance across banking, insurance, and financial services. Working fluency in the regulatory forces shaping technology adoption in Indian BFSI, with RBI, IRDAI and SEBI mandates understood as demand drivers, not compliance obstacles.
