In her new position, Chitnis will lead Systematix Group’s overall people strategy, with responsibility for organisational culture, employee experience, leadership development and HR governance across the group’s businesses.

Chitnis is known for a people-first leadership approach, having led large teams and implemented workplace initiatives aimed at building inclusive, high-performance cultures while maintaining a focus on employee wellbeing.
Her appointment comes at a time when financial services firms are placing greater emphasis on leadership pipelines and workforce resilience, as competition for talent intensifies and regulatory and market conditions evolve.
