Senior environmental assessment specialist blending GIS modeling with automation for ESG compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Environmental Assessment Specialist who brings environmental compliance, GIS modeling, and automation into one delivery mindset. At NEOM, I’ve expanded into Procurement & Finance leadership—supporting OPEX forecasting, CAPEX budgeting, accruals, and procurement workflows—while serving as a liaison between Environmental, Finance, Commercial, and Project Controls teams.
On NEOM, I supervise EPC contractors to ensure IFC Performance Standards, ESG criteria, and national regulations are met. I lead complex ESIA reviews and mitigation planning, monitor ESMP implementation through site inspections, and drive corrective actions when needed—while coordinating vegetation clearance, pre-clearance surveys for sensitive habitats, and support for biodiversity management efforts. I also streamline E&S tracking and environmental reporting by building automated workflows in PowerApps and Power Automate, and I develop ecological risk and area-of-influence models using GIS mapping, geospatial analysis, and statistical simulations.
Previously, as an HSE Data Analyst at Chevron, I managed and verified environmental datasets (air quality, noise, wastewater), maintained records supporting HSE investigations, and built predictive models and health dashboards in R and Power BI to track exposure and enable proactive safety interventions. As an Environmental Data Analyst (FGP-WPMP), I prepared and consolidated reporting-ready environmental data for national authorities, international lenders, and stakeholders, and I automated data pipelines and dashboards for E&S metrics—reducing reporting time and improving ESG data transparency—while modeling environmental pollution with MODFLOW and statistical methods to support ESIA documentation.
