LinkedIn ProfileAnil Mahajane is the Founder & CEO of CSuite Talent — highly qualified in Management from the prestigious Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT) and thoroughly experienced for over three decades in international trade and senior leadership hiring.
Best known as a Turnaround Specialist and an astute Headhunter in industry circles across India and the Middle East, Anil has spent his career operating at the intersection of business leadership, executive assessment, and cross-border commerce.
He has worked as a successful CEO in several multi-million dollar organisations in India — bringing firsthand understanding of what boards and founders truly need when making critical leadership appointments.
This operational experience as a chief executive — combined with decades of headhunting across sectors and geographies — gives CSuite Talent a rare vantage point: the ability to assess leadership candidates not just as a recruiter, but as someone who has sat in the chair.
CSuite Talent works on a limited number of assignments each year, accepting mandates selectively — where the role carries strategic consequence and the process allows for independent judgment and discretion. Engagements are respectfully declined where they are transactional, volume-driven, or incompatible with confidentiality.
