Bharti Airtel HR Head For India, South Asia Quits With Immediate Effect

Bharti Airtel’s chief people officer for India, South Asia, Gautam Anand, has resigned from the mobile phone operator with immediate effect, a little over a year after he was elevated to the role.

Till the time a successor is appointed, the second largest carrier’s human resource functions will report directly to Chief Executive Officer Gopal Vittal, a person familiar with the matter said.

An Airtel spokesperson confirmed the exit and said that Anand was leaving due to personal reasons.

Anand had been with Airtel since 2009 and rose up the ranks while working in different capacities to become the head of human resources for India and South Asia operations. For instance, Anand had been heading human resources for Indian and South Asia consumer business, and prior to that he managed the digital TV business.

In May 2012, he was elevated to the position of vice-president, chief of staff for CEO, India & South Asia, where he was closely associated with the CEO in all aspects of business management, including performance reviews, strategic updates for the board of directors, and internal and external stakeholder management.―Business Telegraph
