What I'm looking for

I’m seeking leadership opportunities, particularly as a COO or Head of Operations, in an innovative organization that treats operational data as a core asset for growth and transformation. I’m also interested in investment and data operations roles with opportunities for professional advancement.

At Ghobash Trading and Investment Co. LTD, I manage investment operations exceeding $2 billion across diverse asset classes. I prepare daily portfolio performance reports and assist the Investment Department research team with due-diligence projects.

I initiated and maintained internal MIS projects with my team. The system automated operations processes, including settled trades and P&L, and provided a current view of the asset classes managed by the team.

Earlier, at Securities and Investment company L.L.C., I monitored unmatched and open trades, coordinated with custodians, and supported trade settlement and reconciliation.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Data Science and Financial Technology from University Of London and Goldsmiths, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science from The university of Sunderland UK. I was a finalist for a Science and Sustainability Award from the British Council.
