Jayasankar Nair has joined Sabinsa as its new chief executive officer. Nair will be based in the company’s East Windsor, New Jersey headquarters.

Nair was previously part of the Sabinsa team as its chief financial officer from 2001 to 2010, after which he was recruited to set up a US company for the Muthoot Group, a 126 year old company based in India.

Prior, Nair spent 23 years with the State Bank of India, where he specialized in marketing, business development, training and HR activities. Nair is also a well-known speaker in the banking industry, giving lectures on “Effective Communication” and “Marketing”.

“We are pleased that Jay has returned to Sabinsa as the CEO, to plan and execute a disciplined and ambitious growth pattern,” said Sabinsa founder Dr. Muhammed Majeed.
Majeed added, “We have expanded both globally and in intellectual property, and will benefit from Jay’s experience and leadership as we move forward.”

Nair commented, “Sabinsa has accomplished many impressive achievements, and I am very much looking forward to working with the team to expand our reach. Sabinsa’s portfolio of products can have a significant impact on the health of consumers worldwide, which was Dr. Majeed’s original mission, and I am pleased to be back at Sabinsa to help pursue that mission.”
