What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead complex, multilingual projects end-to-end—coordinating stakeholders, managing timelines and documentation, and driving high-quality delivery in a fast-paced international environment.

I’m a project coordination and localization professional with more than 13 years of experience managing international programmes, multilingual projects, and cross-functional teams across the Middle East and North Africa. I combine programme management, software localization, stakeholder engagement, and operational coordination to keep complex work on track.

I’ve coordinated projects involving governments, municipalities, international organizations, and language professionals—ensuring timely delivery, quality assurance, and effective communication. From 2019–2025, I managed multiple concurrent initiatives with rigorous documentation, reporting, and risk follow-up, while coordinating stakeholders across multiple countries.

I also bring two years of software localization experience, working with CAT tools (memoQ and SDL Trados Studio), terminology management, translation memories, and localization workflows. I’m comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously, coordinating distributed teams, maintaining project documentation, and supporting clients in fast-paced international environments.
