Food ordering app Zomato on Friday announced the appointment of Chaitanya Mathur as the Global Head for Zomato Live -- a new event-driven vertical of the company.
"We connected on the idea of organising engagement driven, large-scale events for all the users around the world and we are thrilled to have him on board to build Zomato Live and expand it globally," said Deepinder Goyal, Founder and CEO, Zomato.
Mathur has previously worked in various positions ranging from a financial analyst to an event manager and restaurateur, along with co-founding "The Grub Fest", the company said in a statement.
"Zomato's journey has really inspired me over the years and I am excited to be strengthening its future by leading the company into new domains and territories. I look forward to building Zomato Live together with the incredible team here," said Mathur.
In the past few months, Zomato has hired several senior people like ex-MakeMyTrip COO Mohit Gupta as the CEO for the food delivery business; Sameer Maheshwary as the CFO; Rohithari Rajan as the Global Head for its ad sales business; and Thomas Phillippe as the General Counsel, the company said.
