Gaurav Sharma

Strategic and results-driven Senior Financial Controller with over 18 years of progressive leadership in luxury hospitality finance. I have built my career across prestigious brands like ITC, Park Inn by Radisson, and Country Inn & Suites by Carlson—specializing in driving financial performance, leading multi-property operations, and optimizing fiscal strategies.

My journey began in 2006 as a Finance Coordinator, evolving through roles such as Assistant Manager Finance, Financial Controller, and eventually Group Finance Manager. I bring deep expertise in budgeting, forecasting, asset management, internal controls, and hotel pre-opening financial planning.

With international exposure spanning Dar Es Salaam, Zanzibar, Arusha, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives, I understand the financial dynamics of both emerging and mature markets. My leadership style combines precision, cross-cultural team management, and a strong commercial acumen tailored to the hospitality sector.

I’m passionate about leveraging financial intelligence to drive operational excellence and stakeholder value across the luxury hospitality space.
