Hero MotoCorp announced that their new chief human resources officer for its domestic operations and global markets will be Sanjay Jorapur.
Sanjay will report directly to Hero MotoCorp’s chief Pawan Munjal. Sanjay is a 20-year veteran in the field of human resources and joins Hero from Crompton Greaves. He was the Executive Vice President and Global Head of Human Resources and CSR there and prior to that, he was the country HR Director at Honeywell.
This new recruitment from Hero Motocorp follows the company’s recent appointment of Markus Braunsperger of BMW, Germany as its Chief Technology Officer (CTO). The company had earlier appointed Markus Feichtner as head of its newly-created division of New Engines Design and Development within the R&D division, and Rajat Bhargava as Head of Corporate Strategy.
Pawan Munjal, Vice Chairman and MD, Hero MotoCorp, said, "As we strive to build a truly global organisation with a diverse talent pool, the strength of our people practices will be the key to our success. We aim to build a world-class organization in term of policies and processes and above all work-life balance."
The company considers these new recruitments beneficial as Hero has expanded into new markets in Asia, Africa, South and Central America over the past year and a half. With two new manufacturing plants coming up in Bangladesh and Colombia, these new recruitments should lend a helping force to drive proper management processes for the company. The manufacturer has also forged multiple technological alliances - with Erik Buell Racing (EBR) of the US, Engines Engineering of Italy, AVL of Austria and Magneti Marelli of Italy.
