Ahmed Tohamy

I’m a Senior HR Business Partner with 10 years of experience in financial services and multi-disciplinary environments. I specialize in strategic workforce planning, DEI transformation, and leading HR teams to deliver measurable outcomes.

In my most recent leadership role at ALEXBANK (Subsidiary of Intesa Sanpaolo Group), I drove measurable cultural change—achieving 50% gender-balanced hiring (vs. 27% baseline) and increasing female leadership by 40%. I also owned talent acquisition strategy that delivered 400+ annual placements, directly supporting the bank’s expansion and operational goals.

I strengthen performance and continuity through cross-functional redesign: migrating from static KPIs to agile OKRs, architecting succession planning for top talent, and improving retention with a data-driven approach that slashed attrition by 15% year over year. I’ve also mentored 7 direct reports, improving employee satisfaction across the functions they supported.

Operationally, I modernize HR with strict governance—digitizing and automating legacy HR processes via Oracle ERP to reduce administrative workload by 7.5 hours per week while maintaining GDPR compliance. I collaborate closely with stakeholders, including the Works Council, to implement new policies through cooperative social partnership.
