In this role, Anand will be primarily responsible for developing successful strategies to drive the company's revenue growth in this key region, with a focus on building new collaborations with global capability centers (GCCs).

"Vikas has a strong reputation for driving revenue operations, marketing and overall business strategy success at the top talent management companies in India," said Srini Venkatraman, senior vice president and global business head at Revature. "He also has the ability to collaborate with key stakeholders and quickly build credibility with new clients as well as proven prospecting and new business experience – all of which will benefit Revature as it expands its footprint in India, which is a strategic area of growth for the business."

Prior to Anand's role at Revature, he spent more than 20 years growing several brand-name talent management companies, including NIIT Limited, Simplilearn and HackerEarth. At NIIT, Anand led the GCC business vertical for StackRoute, driving digital transformation initiatives. At Simplilearn, he was the director of GCCs, where he built a high-performing sales team, implemented impactful processes and achieved strong business results. Prior, Anand was the director of enterprise and emerging business segments at HackerEarth, where he managed a large sales team, fostering strategic relationships and boosting revenue. To further support his career, he earned an MBA in marketing from Christ University in Bangalore, India.

"Revature has the potential to make a huge impact in India, where there's a great opportunity to further enhance talent management with a unique approach by offering both emerging talent and training programs," said Anand. "With Revature's Total Talent Solution, we can help GCCs deliver skilled tech talent faster and at a lower cost to help achieve their business goals."

Anand's appointment comes on the heels of other recent strategic executive announcements, including Tan Moorthy's appointment from COO to CEO last month as well as Vivek Ravichandran's appointment as senior vice president and head of training, technology and platform.
