Jio Platforms Limited (JPL) on Tuesday appointed Dan Bailey as President of Jio Platforms to lead the company’s international business initiatives. Based in London, Bailey will report to Akash Ambani, Chairman of Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited.
“I have long admired what Jio has built in India — the scale, the speed, and the genuine impact on people’s lives. The chance to help take that story global is the kind of opportunity you don’t think twice about,” said Bailey.
Bailey will join the Executive Committee of Jio Platforms Limited and will contribute broadly across the business, with over 35 years of experience across consulting and investment banking. He has held senior leadership roles at Schroders/Citi, Morgan Stanley, and HSBC and recently served as the Chairman of Deutsche Bank’s TMT practice. Over the course of his career, Bailey has advised many of the world’s largest corporates and financial sponsors on a broad range of transformative transactions, including consequential telecom deals. The move is in line with JPL’s last annual general meeting (AGM) statements of Jio’s next chapter extending beyond India.
Commenting on the appointment, Akash Ambani, Chairman of Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited, said, “We are delighted to welcome Dan to Jio. Dan has been a trusted advisor to us for many years, and his counsel has been invaluable as we have grown and evolved. He has spent his career at the centre of the global telecom and technology ecosystem and brings deep relationships, strategic insights, and a strong understanding of the industry’s complexity.”
