Wipro Names Sandeep Dhar To Lead Global GCC Strategy
Wipro Limited has appointed
Sandeep Dhar as the Global Head of its GCC (Global Capability Centre) Practice,
signalling a focused push toward next-gen enterprise solutions powered by
artificial intelligence and digital transformation.
Dhar, a veteran in the
technology and consulting landscape, brings over 30 years of experience across
major global organisations and has been instrumental in establishing and
scaling high-impact GCCs, including those for retail and financial services
giants. His previous leadership roles at Tesco and Goldman Sachs saw him
successfully pivot their India centres into innovation-led, high-performance
hubs aligned with global business goals.
In this newly defined role,
Dhar will drive Wipro’s advisory-led GCC offerings—working closely with
enterprises aiming to build, modernise or scale their offshore operations into
strategic transformation centres. He will directly report to Sanjeev Jain,
Wipro’s Chief Operating Officer.
Commenting on the
appointment, Sanjeev Jain said, “Wipro has played a pivotal role in helping
clients set up and evolve their GCCs over the past two decades. With Sandeep on
board, we are strengthening our ability to lead in a space that is rapidly
transforming. His expertise and industry relationships will enable us to create
deeper value for clients looking to innovate at speed.”
Dhar echoed the optimism,
stating, “Today’s enterprises need partners who understand both the ambition
and complexity of building future-ready GCCs. Wipro is uniquely positioned with
its full-stack services, platform thinking, and AI depth to guide clients
through every stage of this journey. I’m excited to join at such a pivotal
time.”
This move aligns with
Wipro’s broader strategic refresh under CEO Srini Pallia, with an emphasis on rejuvenating
growth, strengthening global practices, and accelerating the adoption of
intelligent technology frameworks.
