Leadership Transition at Flipkart

Seema Nair’s appointment comes amid a series of leadership changes within Flipkart. Notably, Smriti Krishna Singh held the CHRO position in 2018 but left in 2019.

At Flipkart, Seema will spearhead its HR strategies, partnering with leadership and HR teams to shape a culture of innovation and excellence.

During her tenure, she contributed significantly to enhancing sales retention and optimizing supply chain productivity.

As the CHRO for India and SAARC at Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages, Seema played a crucial role in shaping HR strategies. Her focus on talent development, employer branding, and employee communications made a lasting impact.

Seema’s association with Cisco Systems spanned almost nine years. She served as the CHRO for India and SAARC, driving people-centric initiatives. Her leadership extended to both domestic and global HR functions.

Seema holds an MBA specializing in Human Resources from XLRI Jamshedpur. She is an active member of the Bombay Chamber of Commerce, contributing to diversity and inclusion (D&I) and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) committees.
