TIAA is accelerating its strategy to lead in lifetime income, delight its clients and strengthen how the firm operates, with digital-first, cloud-first and enterprise-wide shared services. Since its inception six years ago, TIAA GBS India has played a vital role within the broader TIAA organization and has delivered exceptional performance with highest level of operational excellence. With over 2,700 associates based in Mumbai and Pune, TIAA’s India arm continues to play an integral part of the global capabilities strategy as they build technology, client services and enterprise-wide shared services across the businesses and corporate functions. This includes the recent new office opening in Mumbai and planned expansion of the Pune campuses.
Majumdar joined TIAA GBS India in 2018 and since then, has played an instrumental role in leading key client services and technology roles across Retirement Services and Nuveen Asset Management businesses. She has been serving as the campus head in Pune and chairing TIAA GBS India’s corporate social responsibility operating committee to deliver impact in the local communities.
