What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead corporate strategy, investment planning, and digital transformation work where rigorous financial analysis, cross-functional delivery, and executive decision support shape major energy investments.

At International Energy Services Limited, I lead corporate planning, investment evaluation, and financial modelling for upstream, midstream, and gas infrastructure opportunities that shape multi-billion-dollar investment decisions.

I directed due diligence and business-case development for a USD 3 billion, 2 MMTPA LNG project, helping advance it to active funding engagement with Afreximbank and major industry partners. I build NPV, IRR, scenario, and sensitivity models, standardize investment memorandum frameworks, and turn complex data into executive and board-ready decisions.

I also lead cross-functional initiatives spanning finance, legal, operations, and technology, including SAP deployment, knowledge-management adoption, KPI design, and process improvement. I manage a team of analysts while building stronger planning, governance, and capital-allocation capabilities across the organization.
