    • TheoryM

      May 2003 - May 2004
      Research Analyst

      Picked the first job I got out of my MBA...Not one of my smartest choices at the time. It was a grueling experience and I made a ton of mistakes while learning the ropes -the learnings from these have helped significantly in my career. Understanding how to use and look at data has been a critical component of the work that I have done over the years. TheoryM provided a stepping stone in terms of looking at what really happens down in the trenches with the raw unfinished data as opposed to the smoother polished presentation that the end client sees.

      May 2004 - May 2006
      Senior Research Executive

      This was my first foray into the world of research and gave me a great sense of perspective when it comes to smaller agencies. It was also a significant move - from analysis in the back end to client servicing.Some of the notable projects of that time were the Annual KS Sex Survey 2005 ( which provided a lot of insights into dealing with sensitive studies) , multiple instances of research with kids and the PMI Counterfeit Incidence study .

    • IMRB International

      Jun 2006 - Mar 2007
      Associate Project Director

      Managed the Reliance Infocomm Tracker - India's second largest telecom Tracker across 27 cities. I truly wish I could gloss over this more, but other than Brand Tracking expertise , spectacularly late nights and nightmares involving clients and their advertising, this was a relatively non exciting part of my work career.For most researchers in India, IMRB is like a guild where your skills are finely honed. I spent less than a year out here because of exciting opportunities overseas, but this is definitely a place I cherish and admire. Show less

    • TNS Singapore

      Mar 2007 - Nov 2014

      This was a fairly interesting place in my career. I built some excellent client relationships in the 3.5 years that I worked here which have been very fulfilling.My fondest memories of this place would include winning the 1st runner up in the Kantar Measure of Inspiration Awards 2014 , growing the Govt sector into a full fledged business unit, signing on 2 Fortune 500 clients (Apple , Disney) and the work done for Diageo where I played a critical role in its growth as a full fledged tracker spanning 16 markets. Show less The 4 years I spent here had a significant impact on me and my career. In addition to managing Fast Track (the world's largest QSR tracking program) across 11 countries in the Levant and Middle East, I also had the unique opportunity to experience the work and culture across a variety of regions. Some of the more interesting highlights of my time spent here would be my award in 2008 from Henkel for research insights, a 2009 Commendation for creating a new mechanism to understand Needs, a company wide policy to encourage new revenue streams, a significant growth in expertise around Mystery Shopping and a unique demand estimation model that I developed for Reckitts Benckiser who then recommended it to Bosch.

      Recognition for pro-active client relationship development (ANZ) TNS Singapore Jun 2013 In 2013, a fairly innocuous 'email' from me landed in the inbox of the research manager at ANZ. With no prior history or relationship, this email sparked off a larger conversation and discussions for multiple subsequent studies.This was extensively diagnosed and used as a case example across TNS APAC offices for proactive client engagement.

      Recognition Award for MOM Study - Creative Research design TNS Singapore 2012 Unique Research methodology implemented that significantly improved project profitability. This was a high profile C-level executive study. Rather than using a field team, we reached out across the company and got researchers to meet up with clients. Not only did this ensure enormous cost savings, it also built up multiple new leads for business generation and was seen as a refreshing change for a lot of researchers who were spending time primarily in the office.
