What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a challenging role in energy projects where I can apply project controls, performance management, technical expertise, and leadership to drive value and deliver excellence.

I've led project controls, planning, and performance management across major Oil & Gas and energy projects totaling more than $5.3 billion. My work spans project delivery, stage-gate reviews, cost and schedule control, risk management, and executive reporting.

At OQ, I drove group performance management through strategic KPIs, balanced scorecards, dashboards, benchmarking, and cross-functional data analysis. Previously at OmanGas, I established a reporting department, led Project Committee Reviews, and provided strategic tender insights.

I've supported delivery of projects including Salalah LPG, Amin Solar PV, Amal Field Development, Miraah Solar, ABB Block-60 Gas, and Qasr Gas Development. I use Primavera, SAP, Acumen Fuse, and ProCon to build transparent controls frameworks, strengthen decision-making, and guide multidisciplinary teams through execution and commissioning.
