What I'm looking for
I am a Global Mobility and Engagement professional dedicated to managing the complexities of international movement through a security-focused lens. Currently serving as the Global Mobility & Engagement Officer at Oxford Brookes University, I oversee Erasmus+ and Turing mobility budgets while ensuring strict compliance with UK government and European Commission frameworks
My background in International Business and in International Security (Specializing in Security and Terrorism) allows me to offer a unique dual perspective to immigration-related organisations.
Operational Excellence: I have managed inbound and outbound mobilities for over 200 students annually, resolving complex budget reporting and policy updates under high-pressure deadlines.
Security & Risk Mitigation: I collaborate with legal and risk control teams to ensure global engagement strategies remain "risk-free". My studies in Counter-Terrorist Financing and analytical research provide a foundation for high-level vetting and geopolitical risk assessment.
Global Communication: Trilingual in English, Romanian, and Spanish, I have extensive experience engaging with stakeholders and agents worldwide to foster cross-cultural connections.
I am seeking a remote opportunity where I can apply my analytical precision and deep understanding of international security to help organizations navigate the evolving landscape of global immigration and mobility
