Manish Tiwary, who is vice president and country manager, India Consumer Business at Amazon India, has quit the ecommerce major.

He joined Amazon India in 2016 post a long stint with Unilever. Tiwary has close to 20 years of experience with Unilever in various sales, marketing, and general management roles. He was part of the Unilever (India) Board with specific responsibility for Sales for South Asia. His last role was as the Managing Director for Unilever (Gulf) managing a cluster of 34 countries in North Africa and Middle East operating from Dubai.

Tiwary holds a Management degree from Indian Institute of Management (Bangalore) and a Bachelor’s degree in Computer science from BITS.

He will continue with Amazon until October to help ensure a smooth transition.
