Abdallah Diab
@abdallahdiab
I’m an Operations Manager building scalable systems with AI to improve people and processes.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Operations Manager with 4+ years of experience and an MSc in Occupational & Business Psychology from Kingston University London. I specialize in Business Operations, Process Improvement, Project Management, and People Operations—turning messy workflows into scalable systems people can actually run.
In my current contract role, I built 25+ operational workflows across Finance, HR, Recruitment, AI, and Client Services. I designed a recruitment pipeline supporting 500+ candidate screenings, automated payroll and revenue tracking, and used Agentic AI workflows with ClickUp AI Agents and Claude to streamline day-to-day operations.
I’ve also led high-visibility operations as Operations Manager (ILMS), overseeing productivity, people management, research, and instructional design to ensure efficient, high-quality course delivery. I built and maintained a Project & Productivity Tracker for 850 courses across 12 research centers, led a 100+ team, and created end-to-end SOPs, department handbooks, and automated KPI dashboards for executive reporting.
Before that, I strengthened the people side of operations as an HR specialist and supported research execution as a Senior Research Analyst. I’m at my best where structure meets momentum—using KPIs, SOPs, and thoughtful change management to reduce bottlenecks, support teams, and keep operations continuously improving.
