Ambrish Tripathi joins as Director (HR), BEL
Ambrish Tripathi has taken over the charge as Director (Human Resources) of Navratna Defence PSU Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL). Prior to this appointment, he was General Manager of BEL’s Kotdwar Unit from January 1, 2024.
Tripathi holds a BE degree from National Institute of Technology (NIT), Allahabad & has done Executive Post Graduate Diploma in Management with specialization in HR from Symbiosis Pune. He also has PMP certification from PMI USA.
During his tenure as General Manager of BEL’s Kotdwar Unit, Ambrish Tripathi provided holistic leadership for the Human Resources function, aligning people policies with organisational objectives, strategic frameworks and corporate directives. He translated the strategic HR vision into measurable outcomes through structured policy implementation, governance excellence, workforce capability enhancement and institutional capacity building.
Under his leadership, the Kotdwar Unit registered 75% growth during the previous year and received the Platinum recognition under the CII Excellence programme. The Unit was also conferred the Kalinga Safety Award. Quality Circles from the Unit were recognised at global forums in consecutive years, reflecting the strong focus on quality, productivity and continuous improvement.
Being located in a remote area, retention of skilled manpower was a major challenge. Mr. Ambrish Tripathi introduced innovative recruitment and workforce engagement strategies, including campus recruitment from regional colleges, recruitment of Ex-Servicemen for supervisory roles and engagement of trained manpower through avenues such as Advanced Trainees after completion of apprenticeship. These initiatives resulted in zero attrition during the past two years and induction of more than 150 professionals.
He also focused on capability development through structured learning and skill enhancement programmes. The initiatives enabled the existing workforce to develop the Kawach system for Indian Railways in record time, demonstrating the effectiveness of focused capability building and knowledge development.
Ambrish Tripathi maintained stable and productive industrial relations through proactive engagement with employees and their representatives. This contributed to a conducive work environment and enabled the Kotdwar Unit to achieve a high turnover of Rs. 1,058 Crores. He also drove a positive cultural shift towards fostering a mindset of action, accountability and result orientation.
He has also spearheaded CSR initiatives of more than Rs. 15 Crores, aimed at addressing regional and national priorities. Earlier, as AGM at the Integrated Software Complex (ISCO), he contributed to IT initiatives for smooth onboarding and early establishment of Gen Z employees. Integration of learning platforms such as ‘Udemy’ and ‘Coursera’ with BEL’s IT infrastructure helped transform the learning culture of the organisation.
Tripathi has been instrumental in transforming the HR function through digitisation and alignment of organisational objectives with technological advancements. Data analysis-based strategic HR decision-making enabled better alignment of the HR function with the growth objectives of the organisation.
