He has been instrumental in building high-performing teams and working with clients across various business sectors to drive digital transformation and deliver exceptional outcomes.

Most recently, he served as Senior Vice President and Managing Director for the UK and Ireland, overseeing a regional business with an annual revenue of over a billion dollars.
An honors graduate in Computer Science, Omkar is also a technologist at heart, holding patents in the fields of fraud detection, anti-money laundering, and digital channels.
