What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters innovation and growth, where I can leverage my consulting expertise to drive impactful change and contribute to a collaborative team environment.

I am an ambitious consultant and operator with a proven track record in global enterprise transformation, start-up operations, and AI-driven automation. My experience spans across various industries, where I have consistently demonstrated my ability to lead within complex environments, optimize business systems, and drive commercial growth. I thrive on challenges and am dedicated to delivering high-quality outputs that exceed client expectations.

Currently, I serve as a Consultant in Transformation Management Consulting at Cognizant, where I have been recognized for my exceptional performance and promoted to Consultant after receiving three consecutive outstanding reviews. I have successfully led high-stakes projects, including a £9M multi-vendor ITGC transformation for a global retailer, where I acted as the strategic integrator across business units and ensured real-time visibility of program health. My role has allowed me to develop strong client engagement skills and deliver strategic recommendations that enhance operational efficiency.

In addition to my consulting role, I am also a Growth & Operations Consultant at Polar Media House, where I implemented a CRM system that significantly increased lead conversion. My passion for continuous improvement drives me to document, optimize, and automate internal business workflows, ensuring scalability and efficiency. I am excited about the opportunity to leverage my skills and experiences to contribute to innovative projects and drive business growth.
