About Us

ajconsulting is a budding and hungry HR consulting firm founded by a hard core HR professional with hands-on experience of managing the HR function for various organisations in different verticals over a career spanning more than 33 years. Navigating enough and more real-life issues during this time, we have come to understand what organisations undergo in real-time situations. Every organisation is different, every issue is unique, and the solutions have to be thought through and co-created, with a clear implementation strategy before launch.

Nothing comes easy, there are no pre-determined answers; together with the client organisation, we strive to maximise the returns on the effort and finances put in to take the client organisation forward. The results are not solely for the sake of enriching the HR agenda, while this helps, but to make a positive impact on business outcomes.

We present objective solutions to real issues, or help in an organisation’s efforts to enable them to be better tomorrow than they are today – all with grounded support and co-creation of solutions.

Meet the Founder

An alumnus of Hindu College, Delhi University and Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, Ajay Chowdhury is a people person who has a way of reaching out to the hearts and minds of his colleagues. With an MBA degree in Human Resources from Faculty of Management Studies, Delhi University, Ajay sincerely believes in the triad of capability development, ethics, and joy at the workplace.

With over 33 years of rich and varied work experience Ajay started his professional career from the public sector steel behemoth SAIL in 1991, where he learnt the basics of handling different kinds of HR and IR related issues typical of any manufacturing entity. In the ensuing period, he moved on to leadership positions in HR at various levels in different organisations such as IIS Infotech, Birlasoft, Fidelity, Hutch, and Dell.

He also worked in the UK for three years that further honed his international and cross-cultural people management skills. He spent two years in the entrepreneurial space, where he offered HR services to clients in the SME segment on a time-share basis, among other ventures connected to capability development.

At SRF since 2010, and in the CHRO role for more than eleven years, his priority was to build and strengthen an efficient, process-driven, business aligned, value driven, issue based, employee-care centred HR function that other organisations would like to emulate.

A keen sports enthusiast, Ajay has represented his University and State in sports like Squash, Table Tennis and Cricket. His sports passion has now converted to Golf.
