What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and professional growth in a supportive environment.

I am a highly motivated and integrity-driven professional with over 15 years of experience in the non-profit and non-governmental sectors. My expertise lies in project management, human resources, and policy development. I have a proven track record of designing and implementing effective administrative and financial policies, ensuring alignment with strategic goals. My role at the Jordan Strategy Forum has allowed me to contribute significantly to institutional performance through the definition and monitoring of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed various projects funded by international organizations, including USAID and the EU. I have a strong background in preparing project proposals, documentation, and reports, ensuring compliance with donor frameworks. My experience also includes enhancing social cohesion within teams and developing HR policies that promote a positive workplace culture. I am passionate about using data analytics to drive decision-making and improve organizational outcomes.
