I’m a PMO Analyst specializing in CAPEX governance and operational performance optimization.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a PMO Analyst focused on project governance and operational performance within capital-intensive industrial programs. I align stakeholders and build the decision-making fabric—KPIs, risk management, and process optimization—to secure strategic execution in complex, regulated environments.
Across my roles, I’ve contributed to CAPEX steering for a portfolio exceeding $30M and improved executive visibility through KPI dashboards covering costs, risks, and schedules. I also optimized supply and transport flows impacting critical industrial operations, including the transition of Incoterms for semi-finished products.
I bring a strong change-management mindset, using frameworks such as Prosci’s 3-Phase approach to drive adoption and strengthen organizational performance. I coordinate multidisciplinary teams across engineering, procurement, and operations—supporting transformation initiatives at large scale, including deployments connected to AI solutions within the Airbus ecosystem.
My track record includes reducing tool and consumable costs by 45% through automated distribution solutions for cutting tools and consumables. I’m motivated by infrastructure, energy, and large-scale transformation projects, and I enjoy building PMO maturity through clear processes, measurable outcomes, and continuous improvement.
