What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead end-to-end delivery of cloud and platform transformations—bringing clear governance, strong stakeholder alignment, and smooth operational transition (ORAT/service transition) for regulated, high-impact environments.

I’m an IT Project & Delivery Manager with over nine years of experience delivering technology transformation across banking, telecommunications, SaaS, managed services, and regulated environments. I bring structure to complex or stalled initiatives—aligning technical and business teams, managing risks, and guiding work through cutover, operational readiness, production go-live, hypercare, and business-as-usual support.

In recent roles, I recovered delayed platform migrations by rebuilding delivery plans and clarifying scope, including delivering approximately NZD $80,000–$90,000 in annual infrastructure savings. I’ve also consolidated customer platforms into HubSpot, generating approximately NZD $100,000 in annual savings, and delivered critical migrations that enabled retention of a customer generating approximately NZD $100,000 in recurring monthly revenue—backed by strong governance, RAID management, and executive reporting.
