What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration and drives impactful development initiatives.

I am a results-driven professional with over 10 years of experience in partnership development, donor engagement, and resource mobilization within the international development sector and NGOs. As the National Coordinator for GIZ, I successfully managed multi-million-dollar projects, led strategic advocacy efforts, and organized impactful campaigns that aligned with donor priorities. My proficiency in project management tools such as Jira, Asana, and Miro has enabled me to effectively oversee complex initiatives while promoting sustainable development goals.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong ability to engage stakeholders and foster collaboration across diverse cultural contexts, having worked extensively in Europe, Asia, and Africa. My achievements include securing TÜV Rheinland accreditation for six Pakistani TVET institutes and launching programs that empower women in infrastructure trades. I am passionate about driving positive change and leveraging my skills to create meaningful impact in the communities I serve.
