What I'm looking for

I seek a role leading business analysis, process improvement and training initiatives where I can mentor teams, drive compliance and deliver measurable efficiency gains.

I am a Senior Business Analyst and qualified trainer with extensive international experience delivering process re-engineering, software transition and licensing governance across corporate and government programmes. I have led cross-functional teams, mentored junior BAs, and successfully implemented automation projects—preventing unlicensed software rollouts, improving service efficiency, and winning service excellence awards.

I combine an analytical, meticulous approach with practical training and stakeholder management skills to translate complex requirements into usable specifications, test plans and training materials. I seek roles where I can lead business analysis, change management and capability-building initiatives to deliver measurable operational improvements.
