What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters collaboration, embraces Agile methodologies, and offers opportunities for continuous improvement and professional growth.

I am a seasoned Project Manager and certified Scrum Master with over 15 years of experience in delivering complex digital projects across various sectors, including FinTech, Logistics, and the Public Sector. My expertise lies in leading high-value initiatives from inception to completion, ensuring that cross-functional teams are aligned and focused on achieving measurable outcomes. Notable achievements include rolling out a MiFID II-compliant trading platform for global banks and leading successful AWS and GCP migrations.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong ability to implement continuous improvement processes, resulting in significant efficiency gains, such as a 97% uplift in billing efficiency through a SAAS platform implementation. I thrive in Agile environments, utilizing methodologies like Scrum, SAFe, and Kanban to keep projects on track and stakeholders engaged. My delivery-first mindset and clear communication style have been pivotal in navigating complex regulatory frameworks and driving projects to successful completion.
