MUMBAI: Puja Sethi has landed a plum role as managing editor digital at Times Network, bringing her two-and-a-half-year stint at India TV to a close.

"Excited to share that I'm starting a new chapter in my career," Sethi announced, tipping her hat to the "incredible teams and mentors" who've propelled her career forward. Her digital trajectory has been nothing short of meteoric, with previous roles including group editor digital at India TV and a similar position at Zee Entertainment.

The LSR graduate cut her teeth in broadcasting, having anchored India's first Hindi breakfast news show Subha Savere for Moving Pictures  before diving headlong into the digital deep end. Her impressive CV boasts of transforming myUpchar.com as vice president and steering Jagran New Media as general manager and digital head.

During her six-year tenure at  Dainik Jagran  Cityplus, Sethi orchestrated an ambitious expansion, launching 48 editions across major Indian metros. Her digital acumen truly shone at OnlyMyHealth.com, where she catapulted user engagement to over five million visitors.

No stranger to the Times Group ecosystem, Sethi previously handled mobile content at Indiatimes, managing the once-ubiquitous 58888 short code service that delivered news, contests and horoscopes to millions of Indian mobile users.

With her formidable background spanning broadcast, print and digital media, industry watchers will be keeping their eyes peeled for how she plans to energise Times Network's digital offerings in an increasingly competitive landscape.
