What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead contract administration and project operations where I can apply performance data, documentation excellence, and stakeholder coordination to improve compliance, reduce risk, and deliver accurate reporting that supports fast decisions.

I’m a detail-oriented Project Operations and contract management specialist with 9+ years supporting complex construction projects through data analysis, reporting, documentation, and coordination. I’m known for maintaining organized information systems and delivering accurate outputs under tight deadlines.

As CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION DIVISION HEAD (Feb 2024–Present), I manage project documentation and reporting systems for multiple construction projects, conduct analytical reviews of project performance data, and produce structured reports for decision-making. I also coordinate teams, schedules, and deliverables, review technical documentation, contracts, and specifications, and monitor budgets, risks, and progress metrics to support operational planning.

Across my prior roles at Huda Real Estate (MIDROC Investment Group PLC)—including SENIOR PROJECT FOLLOW-UP AND SUPERVISION ENGINEER, MANAGER PLANNING AND CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION, and ACTING MANAGER BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT SERVICE—I led contract compliance, performance monitoring, tender and procurement support, and stakeholder communication. I combine contract administration with research, workflow optimization, and process improvement to drive efficient execution, informed decisions, and smoother project delivery.
