The Bengaluru-based IT services provider has, through the appointment, reinstated the position of COO in its top management, a role that it had discontinued after the retirement of BM Bhanumurthy in July last year.
Choudhary will work closely with Wipro’s leadership teams across the organization on transformation initiatives, Wipro said in a statement.
He will manage global business operations, delivery excellence, chief information officer (CIO), chief information security officer (CISO), and enterprise risk management functions.
Choudhary joins Wipro after a 15-year stint at Capgemini, where he was chief operating officer for the financial services business unit and a member of its executive committee. Prior to Capgemini, Choudhary held various leadership positions at Boston Consulting Group and Cadence Design Systems. He is based in New York.
“Amit brings an incredible mix of strategic thinking and credible execution,” said Thierry Delaporte, chief executive and MD of Wipro. “With his experience and unique understanding, Wipro will continue to build a business that delivers to the needs of our stakeholders.”
