What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead ERP and IT operations in the Lebanon/Gulf region—driving IFS/eMIS implementation, business process improvement, and Power BI/BI deployment with strong team leadership and measurable KPI/uptime results.

I’m a senior IT operation and ERP management leader with 28+ years of international experience across KSA, Qatar, and Kuwait. I bring “Senior IT & ERP Management” expertise focused on driving comprehensive growth through ERP strategy, initiatives, and measurable results.

I’ve delivered IFS ERP (8+ years) and eMIS ERP Management (15+ years) through implementation, consultancy, and support in industries including Financials, Assets, Supply Chain, Warehouse Management, CRM, Service, HR/Payroll, Manufacturing, BI, HIS. As a PMP-certified IT professional, I manage ERP projects end-to-end—initiation, requirement analysis, project scoping, planning, quality & KPI monitoring, risk management, and execution control.

I also own the IT operations side: strategy/policy and procedure for smooth operations, process re-engineering, and ERP solution deployment. I complement ERP delivery with Oracle PL/SQL and Power BI, plus pre-sales/sales support and business process improvement—having improved messaging service uptime from below 85% to 99.5% and raised service uptime by 35% through targeted solutions.
