1. Rahul Chakraborty (MBA from The University of Nottingham UK, ITIL certified); +44 7405347687
I have been working with Wipro Consulting Services for more than 6.5 years, dealt with international clients spreading across telecom, retail and utility industries and reported upto CIO level at client side. This exposure has helped me to acquire skills to manage critical service transition management functions like Change and Release Management, IT project delivery, and Supplier Management strategy. Having a background in Computer and Information Science coupled with ITIL intermediate certification enabled me to develop a deeper understanding of IT Infrastructure and Application environment. Negotiations with international suppliers, Product-Service reviews, IT service strategy formulation, IT budgeting, procurement and service charge back - are my areas of consultation. Looking forward to have a role which will enable me to work in a strategic profile and give exposure in business development.
