I build strategic HR functions, strengthen performance, and coach leaders across the Middle East.
United Arab EmiratesWhat I'm looking for
At Arthur D. Little, I lead HR across the Middle East and India, reshaping the operating model from country-based roles to regional teams and transforming the performance process in its first-year cycle.
Previously at PwC Middle East, I launched and led the Ethics and Investigations Team, creating its governance, processes, sanctions matrix, guidance, and policies. I also delivered a 20% improvement in key investigation metrics and built people strategies, career pathways, compensation frameworks, and learning programmes across 12 territories.
Across EY, PwC, Allianz Global, and Nshama, I've partnered with leadership on performance, talent, employee relations, succession, recruitment, and development. I enjoy coaching leaders to have better conversations and building HR teams that create a stronger employee experience.
