MUMBAI: HCL Technologies business process outsourcing arm, HCL BPO, might soon have a new CEO. The firmÂ’s global head for sales, Raj Sirohi, is expected to take over as CEO of the software companyÂ’s BPO operations, sources in the know told ET. Mr Sirohi takes over from Sujit Bakshi, who quit to join another Gurgaon-based BPO firm vCustomer in September last year. In another move, HCL TechnologiesÂ’ North America president for the BPO division, Saurav Adhikari, is likely to move to India and would handle corporate strategy and marketing at group CEO Shiv NadarÂ’s office, sources said. Though HCL BPO has had its senior management in place, the firm did not formally appoint a CEO to spearhead its operations after Mr BakshiÂ’s exit. At present, Ranjit Narasimhan is the COO of HCL BPO and Mr Sirohi, the global head for sales. HCL BPO is in the process of building a capacity of a little under 3,000 seats in India .
