In a strategic move aimed at strengthening its human resources function, Unacademy, the Bengaluru-based Edtech unicorn, has announced the promotion of Arooshi Singh to Head – Human Resources from her most recent role as Director- People Experience and Culture
She has been associated with Unacademy since Oct 2017. With over seven years of dedicated service to the company, Arooshi’s elevation underscores Unacademy’s commitment to nurturing talent and fostering a people-centric work environment.
Head HR Appointment: The Significance of the Promotion
An internal company note from the CEO’s desk announced the promotion stating, “I’m thrilled to share that Arooshi Singh, who has been with us for over 7 incredible years, is being promoted to Head of HR!”
The note added, “Arooshi has worn many hats and led multiple functions across HR with dedication, passion, and excellence. Her journey with Unacademy has been inspiring, and her impact on the team has been immense.”
As Head of HR, Arooshi Singh will play a pivotal role in shaping Unacademy’s talent strategy.
Her responsibilities will extend beyond traditional HR functions to include talent acquisition, employee engagement, learning and development, and organizational design.
With the Edtech sector experiencing rapid growth, Arooshi’s leadership will be crucial in attracting, retaining, and developing top-tier talent.
Nevertheless, Unacademy’s decision to elevate Arooshi reflects its commitment to internal talent development.
By promoting from within, however, the company sends a powerful message. They exemplify hard work, dedication, and a passion for excellence and are recognized and rewarded.
Arooshi’s journey from an early-stage contributor to the head of a critical function exemplifies the growth opportunities available within Unacademy.
