The Saudi conglomerate names NSDC International's former CEO to lead its staffing and workforce management push in India and global markets.
ERAM Holdings, the Saudi Arabian conglomerate, has hired Alok Kumar as CEO of its human capital management business in India. Kumar joins from NSDC International, where he was CEO, working under India's Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship.
The appointment signals a push into India's staffing and workforce management market by ERAM, which operates across oil & gas, engineering, construction, and healthcare among other sectors. The HCM unit will offer staffing, executive search, international talent mobility, recruitment process outsourcing, payroll, and HR consulting.
Kumar has over 25 years in staffing, workforce management, and international talent mobility. At NSDC, he helped build structured migration pathways for Indian workers to Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, the company said.
ERAM's COO Madhu Krishnan said Kumar's background in scaling businesses and his global talent mobility experience made him the right fit for the role. Kumar described human capital as a key engine of economic development, adding that ERAM is positioned to build a cross-border platform connecting talent with employers.
ERAM Holdings was founded in the early 1990s and has expanded into 30-plus countries. The HCM expansion is part of a longer-term growth strategy, though no specific revenue targets or investment figures were disclosed.
