WBCG:NEGFS - Strategy and Planning NEG

About the Role

This role offers a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of some of the most influential client

ecosystems in India. The portfolio spans:

. Strategic Clients - India's top 20 business houses and conglomerates, including groups such as Reliance,

Tata, Aditya Birla, Bharti, JSW, Mahindra and Vedanta.

. New Economy - high-growth, technology-led enterprises, including unicorns and emerging market

leaders.

corporate growth.

intermediaries that form the backbone of India's financial ecosystem.

This is a high-impact role for individuals who enjoy solving complex business problems, identifying growth

opportunities and driving execution. It provides a unique vantage point into how India's largest conglomerates,

opportunity pools, assess Axis Bank's market penetration, formulate growth strategies, drive execution discipline

and mobilise the broader Axis franchise to deepen relationships and increase market share.
