Education-services firm turns to finance veteran as it eyes scale and compliance
NEW DELHI: Drishti Group has tapped Vipan Joshi as its new finance chief, tasking the seasoned chartered accountant with steering financial strategy, risk management and capital planning as the firm gears up for expansion and tighter governance.
Joshi brings more than 23 years of experience across education, manufacturing and consumer-internet companies. His mandate at Drishti includes building scalable financial systems, boosting fiscal discipline and preparing the organisation for possible future market listings.
His appointment comes at a time when education-sector firms are formalising internal processes under growing investor and regulatory scrutiny. For Drishti, the move signals a push for stronger reporting standards and transparent governance across all operations.
Joshi's previous stints include a nine-year tenure at Aakash Institute, where he led controllership functions and later became CFO -- along with roles at Thermax, Snapdeal and Grofers, covering financial planning, internal controls and strategic finance.
With Joshi now at the helm of finance, Drishti looks set to sharpen its fiscal controls and prime itself for expansion, positioning the group for growth with a leaner, smarter balance sheet.
