Senior agency roles

Head of Growth and Operations

Wit & Chai Media Group

Jan 2024 to Sep 2025

Pune

Ops + Growth

Ran day-to-day operations and growth strategy for the whole agency group, covering systems, performance and alignment across verticals

Integrated marketing agency · FMCG, retail, F&B and consumer goods · multi-brand retainer portfolio

Key achievements
  • Owned senior client relationships across FMCG, retail and F&B accounts including Godrej Jersey and Tom Yum; managed briefs, delivery and client satisfaction end-to-end.

  • Turned around three accounts that were about to churn. I found where briefs and delivery had drifted apart, restructured the SOWs and rebuilt the delivery cadence. All three stayed, with bigger scopes.

  • Grew average account value through structured cross-sell into digital, AV and ATL; converted single-service project clients into multi-channel retainers.

  • Designed KRA and KPI frameworks for all account and creative roles, aligned to client commercial outcomes and agency margin targets.

  • Improved pitch-to-win conversion by restructuring proposal narratives and capability presentations around client business priorities.

  • Results: Rs 7.2 cr annualized revenue growth and 30% reduction in execution time within two quarters.

Systems built
  • KRAs for every role + KPI tracking system agency-wide

  • Financial tracking for real-time revenue, payments and P&L

  • Client onboarding, project execution, post-delivery flows

  • Opportunity tracking system to manage proposals and improve conversion quality

  • Led migration to Microsoft 365 and Adobe Enterprise

Leadership wins
  • Organised the Way Forward Summit to align senior leadership on vision and goals

  • Stabilised high-risk client accounts and improved delivery

  • Implemented leave policy and conflict resolution processes

  • Worked closely with Vertical Leads for cross-team execution
