Genpact has promoted Sreekanth Menon to the position of senior vice president of Global AI Practice and Innovation. In his new role, Menon will spearhead AI innovation and oversee the execution of the GenpactNEXT strategy. He will operate from the company’s Bengaluru office.
Commenting on his appointment, Menon expressed enthusiasm about his new responsibilities. “The AI landscape is evolving rapidly, and I’m thrilled to help drive our GenpactNEXT strategy—pioneering innovation, delivering client impact, and shaping the future of AI together. This is an exciting chapter for Genpact, and I’m honored to play a part in its success,” he stated in a LinkedIn post.
Menon has been associated with Genpact for 15 years. In his previous role as vice president and global leader for AI/ML services, he led a global team of over 200 cross-functional experts within Genpact Global Analytics. During his tenure, he successfully scaled the team eightfold within five years. Menon holds degrees from XLRI Jamshedpur and Bangalore University.
This promotion comes as part of Genpact’s broader leadership reshuffle. Last year, the company appointed Piyush Mehta as India country manager, adding to his role as chief human resource officer.
Additionally, after the retirement of NV ‘Tiger’ Tyagarajan as president and CEO in February 2024, Balkrishan ‘BK’ Kalra was named his successor. Kalra, a Genpact veteran since 1999, previously served as the global business leader for financial services and consumer and healthcare segments.
Further strengthening its leadership team, Genpact also appointed Vidya Rao as chief technology and transformation officer and Vipin Gairola as the Global Operating Officer.
