Vassundhara Sarode

I’m a recent MSc International Business graduate with hands-on experience in strategy consulting, project coordination, and market expansion. During my consultancy project, I led a cross-functional team in developing strategic recommendations for a Canadian luxury streetwear brand looking to enter the UK and EU markets. This experience sharpened my skills in research, competitor analysis, and stakeholder communication.

I’m passionate about helping businesses grow internationally, especially at the intersection of strategy, marketing, and culture. With a strong foundation in project management and a keen interest in global markets, I’m now seeking entry-level opportunities where I can contribute to business growth, learn from industry leaders, and make a tangible impact from day one.

I am a business graduate with a strong work ethic and proven leadership in dynamic environments. My experience includes an internship at Y S Prasade & Co. LLP, where I maintained financial records, conducted audits, and helped establish private firms. As an Assistant Manager at Hotel Whitemist, I led initiatives that boosted guest satisfaction by 25%, reduced procurement costs by 20%, and increased positive reviews by 40%, while driving repeat customer growth by 20%.

I’ve also led international projects, including Coop Culture in Rome, where I utilized project management and consulting skills to redistribute tourism to lesser-known attractions, and coordinated a consultancy project with Gully Klassics in Toronto, expanding the luxury streetwear brand into UK and EU markets through strategic market analysis and sustainability initiatives.

I hold an MSc in Management and International Business from Nottingham Trent University, with a focus on market expansion, global supply chain management and international human resource management. Additionally, I earned a Bachelor of Commerce degree from Mumbai University, where I focused on business management, finance, and accounting. These academic experiences have equipped me with advanced business knowledge and strategic decision-making skills, essential for navigating complex global environments.
