As the company looks to fast track its growth agenda in order to fulfil its vision of insuring 10 million lives by 2024, Zoheab will be in-charge of accelerating people expansion and success.

 Abhishek Poddar, Co-founder and CEO, Plum says, “We believe the only long term moat for a business is its quality of people. Plum values the growth and happiness of its people. We welcome Zoheab to the Plum family and are confident that his people-first approach will help us build a robust team, which values each other and are motivated to drive the broader organisational vision.”
