Bio
Vivek Panday
I worked with Ishani for about eight years, and she reported into my structure for approximately two years before I left Old Mutual Corporate. Ishani has a broad skillset that allows her to engage with clients, peers and colleagues and others in a very natural manner. Her technical ability in the Employee Benefits sector is extremely proficient, spanning knowledge across the advice and investment areas. This allows her to have conversations with her clients at the right level, understanding how best to assist them with their requirements. Ishani is also highly skilled at business development. He confident yet natural approach to new clients makes her clients comfortable with her. She is also someone who does what she says she will do, which allows her to build fantastic trust relationships with people around her. I have absolutely no doubt that Ishani has proved herself to be an asset to my division of the business in the years that she reported to me, and I would definitely not hesitate to work with her again given the opportunity.

During my time at Old Mutual, I had the absolute delight of employing and working with Ishani while she reported to me as her line manager. She joined Old Mutual in the Corporate Direct Sales team and worked alongside myself and our team of direct sales consultants as well as all of the internal stakeholders across the Corporate business, from administration to asset management. During this time, Ishani 'shot the lights out' in terms of business objectives and raised the benchmark within the team and environment. She is extremely skilled at creating new opportunities, engages at all levels, building and maintaining strong client relationships, whilst ensuring that she met and over delivered on her objectives as well as the clients expectations. She is a pleasure to work alongside, pragmatic, extremely focussed & solution orientated. Her bright positive energy and enthusiasm is absolutely charming and contagious too!
