What I'm looking for
I am a Strategic Business Analyst and PMO professional with over 10 years' experience delivering business change across IT, banking, and digital payments. I specialise in translating complex requirements into measurable outcomes, leading Agile and hybrid transformations, and improving delivery accuracy through stakeholder engagement, process optimisation and data-driven reporting.
My achievements include cutting payment approval time by 30% through process redesign, improving backlog grooming accuracy by 40% with prioritisation practices, recovering £1.2M in blocked vendor payments via financial forensic analysis, and standardising Agile delivery across multiple teams. I combine strong technical tooling (JIRA, Confluence, Power BI, SQL) with facilitation and documentation expertise to ensure traceability, benefits realisation and smooth UAT and delivery cycles.
