I lead regional finance, business control, and cash-flow optimization across MEA operations.

Message

At CBRE and CBRE Excellerate, I led MEA finance across reporting, planning, tax compliance, cash flow, receivables, payables, and payroll while managing a team of 25. I partnered with global and local clients on collections and invoicing, supported new entities and projects, and identified profitability and cost-reduction opportunities.

Previously, I managed project financial control at RATP Dev Mobility Cairo, including forecasting, cost control, invoicing, cash-in forecasts, ERP development, and monthly financial statements. My experience also spans construction, manufacturing, internal audit, budgeting, costing, and credit control with Hassan Allam, REDCON, Saudi Readymix, Nahdet Misr, Almanea, AmCham Egypt, and TAQA Arabia.
