Mumbai: Future Generali India Insurance Company (FGII), has announced that it has appointed Akshaya Kashyap as the chief people officer of the organisation, effective 1 October, 2023. He has a rich and diverse experience in the Human Resource (HR) domain, spanning over 18 years, with almost a decade of that being with Future Generali.

Kashyap takes over from Sunil Wariar who superannuated from service in September this year. Previously, Akshaya served as a DGM HR in India Life (FGIL) before moving to FGII in February 2016. He also had an overseas stint with Generali Vietnam, which greatly developed and broadened his functional and management competence. Prior to joining Future Generali, he has worked in varied sectors including auto-ancillary, manufacturing and retail.

Commenting on the development, Future Generali India Insurance Company CEO & managing director Anup Rau said, “In alignment with our employee- centric philosophy, our primary focus is on promoting our dedicated current team members who have invested their time and energy in our organization when it comes to filling critical positions, rather than seeking external candidates. I am confident that Akshaya will build on the platform established by Sunil and further extend the company’s culture where employees from diverse backgrounds work collaboratively and in a cohesive manner. Sunil has played a stellar role over the last 14 years and has been instrumental in shaping the company’s HR policies and employee first approach. I would like to thank Sunil for his services and wish him the very best for the next phase of his life.”
