Xanpay provides popular alternative payment infrastructure, via a single API integration, that connects global merchants to nearly 2bn customers across Asia. We raised $73m from some of the leading fintech and crypto venture funds in the United States.I absolutely loved my time at Xanpay and here are some things that I am proud of:- led a commercial team of sales, marketing and support professionals; taught them everything that I learnt over the years, coached them and supported them and in return, learnt a lot from them too. - the team went on to build a multi-million dollar GTV portfolio from scratch; underwriting and onboarding 200+ logos in a short span of 15 months.- we identified, nurtured and built effective partnerships with 50+ global payment facilitators, tech layers and affiliates on the demand side, which accelerated our customer acquisition tremendously.- and we also onboarded multiple APM partnerships on the supply side that created a strong value proposition for our portfolio.

Coming from a successful decade of consulting leaders on making wise career choices and enterprises in attracting top leadership talent, I made the jump to a product driven approach to make hiring a lot easier and unbiased.At impress, we built a candidate experience like none other; employing artificial intelligence to seamlessly move job applicants through multiple stages of the hiring process without the need for human intervention. Along the way, we reduced human bias, sped up the process and ended up being mentioned in the shareholder report of Singapore's largest bank as one of the biggest transformations and innovation they ever accomplished. My role was quite simple; build and coach a world class team that sold to large enterprise customers, implemented the product with minimum friction and ensure that we retained atleast 90% of our customers. Whilst there were a lot of significant achievements, two of them really stand out -a) we reduced the time-to-shortlist from 6 weeks to 3 hours (no kidding!), for a large regional bankb) we became the poster-child of IMDA's Spark programme which led to a multi-year, cross-agency government contractI continue to remain a Shareholder and Advisor to the CEO.

As a management consulting and talent advisory professional, I won and executed search mandates for some of the largest global conglomerates in the financial services, mining & metals and commodities sectors.I always believed that successful executive search professionals are pure sales people; we have to sell our influencing abilities and professional network to corporate leaders and on the flip side, sell a future and a vision to talented professionals who, in most cases, weren't even in the talent market.

When I joined Standard Chartered straight out of business school, I never imagined the impact the programme would have on me. Arguably these 2 years on the International Graduate programme changed my life, my perspectives and to be honest, my personality.- I loved the fact that I got the opportunity to craft powerful messaging (through powerpoint stories) for the corporate leadership team in Singapore and the UK; learning a lot about the business and banking in general through multiple power-charged 30 minute sessions with these leaders.- I also got terrific exposure to a lot of innovation happening at the bank at that time, like re-engineering certain processes, deploying content management / issue tracking / data visualization systems, and also built a pretty cool capacity model (using Excel) that is still the backbone of certain capacity management processes even till today.
