What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that offers opportunities for leadership and strategic impact within a dynamic organization.

I am a dynamic professional with a proven track record in executive support, operations management, and strategic project delivery. My experience spans various roles where I have adeptly managed complex workflows and streamlined operations to achieve organizational goals. I excel in fostering collaborative relationships and leading teams to optimize processes while ensuring compliance with high standards of governance.

In my current role as an Executive Assistant/Project Manager at DLA Piper Africa, I direct firm-wide strategic initiatives and provide operational leadership to the Managing Partner. I have successfully managed multiple projects, ensuring timely delivery and adherence to budgets. My ability to design and implement operational frameworks has significantly improved efficiency across teams, and I take pride in developing strategic reports that aid in executive-level decision-making.

Previously, I have held positions such as Technical Assistant to the Executive Chairperson at Still Earth Holdings and Project Manager at Manufacturing Partnering Group, where I spearheaded the implementation of enhanced project management systems and managed procurement workflows. My educational background includes an MSc in Economics from Girne American University and a BSc in Economics from Ahmadu Bello University, complemented by certifications in Financial Modeling and Product Management.
