Hybrid Project Manager delivering strategic operational improvements and digital transformation.
What I'm looking for
I am a Hybrid Project Manager with 8+ years driving business strategy, operations, and digital transformation across industries including finance, insurance, HR, and public sector. I blend human-centered design thinking with Agile/hybrid methodologies to deliver measurable outcomes.
I have led cross-functional teams across multiple continents, managed programs end-to-end, and implemented process and automation solutions that improved efficiency, compliance, and delivery — for example reducing process redundancy by 30%, improving document compliance by 40%, and raising task completion rates to 93% via automation.
I prioritize stakeholder engagement, risk management, and continuous improvement, and I deliver projects on time and within scope — achieving 92% on-time delivery for concurrent projects, improving investor confidence by 27%, and cutting project delivery delays by 40% through tool integrations and governance.
