HCL Technologies Ltd. has hired former Accenture Plc executive Siki Giunta to head its cloud-consulting business, at a time when demand for cloud services has picked up due to pandemic-induced remote working.
Giunta, who joins HCL Technologies as executive vice president, has a rich experience in leading the development of global cloud strategies for multinational clients. She has scaled enterprise-grade hybrid cloud, data centre and hosting businesses and has been a software products business leader.
She joins HCL Technologies from Accenture, where she was managing director and global strategy lead for that company’s Journey to Cloud programme. Before that, she served as chief executive officer of Managed Objects and Fortisphere.
“We are extremely delighted to have Siki on our team,” said Kalyan Kumar, chief technology officer and head ecosystems, HCL Technologies. “Her knowledge in Cloud and Agile software development with a unique lens of industry relevance and proven experience of leading global firms will be of tremendous benefit to HCL CloudSmart.”
Commenting on her appointment, Guinta said, “Cloud has become the strategic pillar within any organisation to build a responsive, scalable and resilient business model. Organizations today are facing an urgent need to ‘rethink cloud’ to accelerate digital transformation and maximise business value aligned with customer needs, organisational goals and unique market conditions.”
