Shweta Jain, previously Diageo India’s Chief Business Development Officer for Luxury, Reserve & Craft in India & South Asia, has announced her departure from the company.
She started her journey at Diageo in 2018 as vice president and was elevated to her most recent role in September 2021. Jain shared her departure on LinkedIn, stating, “Marked my last days at Diageo this week and spent them well with people who fuel it all. You have all left me with huge gratitude for your partnership in every dimension possible. DIAGEO India gave a broad canvas and I had the privilege of setting an audacious vision of shaping the culture of socialisation while breaking new grounds of growth by premiumisation.”
Discussing her future plans, Jain expressed her excitement about the next stage of her career: “What is next? A new chapter you say… I say it’s time for a new book. Very excited for the leap on the horizon… but for now, its all about a wee savour the pause.”
Currently, she is a board member at Nao Spirits & Beverages. Jain has a rich background in marketing and brand strategy development, enhancing portfolio premiumisation, managing diverse teams, and developing new products across various consumer sectors. She has previously held significant positions at William Grant & Sons, ShopClues, Pernod Ricard India, Ogilvy, McCann Worldgroup, and Gillette India.
