TORONTO: In a first, Procter & Gamble names Indian as global COO
TORONTO: Shailesh Jejurikar has become
the first Indian to be appointed global COO of the consumer products MNC
Procter & Gamble (P&G). The Mumbai born 54-year-old Jejurikar is an
alumni of the Hyderabad Public School and counts among his classmates another
famous global CEO — Satya Nadella of Microsoft.
Jejurikar is not the only
corner-room occupant in his family. Older brother Rajesh is executive director
of Mahindra & Mahindra and also has a background in FMCG. “It is a matter
of pride for all of us to see Indians rise to the top rungs of global
organisations,” said Rajesh Jejurika.
Shailesh Jejurikar is among the handful of India-born global business leaders
without an overseas degree. He did an MBA from IIMLucknow in 1989, soon after
which he joined P&G India as an assistant brand manager (personal
healthcare).
The Cincinnati-based company said that Jon R Moeller, the current COO, will
become the new president and CEO, effective November 1 this year, succeeding
David Taylor who will take over as P&G’s chairman to lead the board of
directors.
