Enterprise transformation executive at Woolworths 360, improving operating models and investment outcomes across a $1B portfolio.

Australia
Message

At Woolworths 360, I lead enterprise transformation, operating model improvement and strategic portfolio execution. I implemented the Woolworths Risk Framework, increasing risk visibility by 50%, and co-designed a value prioritisation framework that improved strategic investment alignment by 35%.

At Retirement Solutions at MUFG (previously known as Link Group), I held executive accountability for a $100M transformation portfolio across Australia, the UK and India. I introduced an OKR framework across eight portfolios and established a Portfolio Review Board that accelerated approvals by 40%.

At Mastercard, I led strategic programme management across global payment platforms and prepaid services. My work included governance transformation for the MEA Mobile Payments Gateway, which drove a 200% increase in transaction volume, and delivery of a secure digital payment wallet for the Egyptian Government during COVID.
