What I'm looking for
I am an experienced project manager and executive assistant with a strong background in managing complex administrative functions within financial institutions. Over the years, I have honed my skills in grants management, consultant procurement, and providing comprehensive project support. My tenure at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has equipped me with the ability to navigate intricate processes efficiently, ensuring that projects are delivered on time and within budget.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to excellence, whether it was preparing technical cooperation project documentation or coordinating corporate training programs. My experience spans various roles, including serving as an interim Executive Assistant to Directors, where I managed scheduling and reporting for high-level executives. I thrive in dynamic environments and am passionate about contributing to organizational success through meticulous planning and execution.
