Announcing this on LinkedIn, Senjam wrote, “I am excited to share that I have joined Air India Limited as the Global Head of Communications. Air India is more than just the flag carrier of the country. It is an enduring emblem of India’s glorious aviation heritage. Now, under the stewardship of the Tata Group, the airline is embarking on a transformative journey honouring its rich roots while evolving into a world class global airline with an Indian heart.
Stepping into this role at such a defining juncture in Air India’s transformation is an honour and a responsibility that I value deeply. I look forward to working with the exceptional communications team to tell the Air India story as it charts its path to rank among the world’s finest carriers.
Partha Ghosh- Appointed as Advisor- CEO
Partha Ghosh, who served as global head of communications at Air India for nearly three years, has moved into the role of Advisor to the CEO.
Partha has held senior leadership roles at renowned organisations including Samsung Electronics, The Economic Times, Business Standard and The Telegraph.
In his LinkedIn post, Ghosh said: “I’m happy to share that I am moving into a new role as Advisor to the CEO. I will be reporting to Campbell Wilson and I look forward to working with him as Air India continues its transformation journey. The last 2 years & 9 months have been quite intense, given the scale and pace of the transformation.
But despite the headwinds that came along the way, the Comms team stood resilient, working with media and other stakeholders with honestly and conviction, and I’m happy with where we are today. My best wishes to the new Corp Comms head, Senjam Raj Sekhar, and the team, as they shape the next chapter under his leadership. The journey continues. The future is bright and full of possibilities!”
