I am interested in remote roles that combine problem-solving, organization, and relationship management. While my experience is rooted in finance and risk, I am also drawn to project management, operations, process improvement, client success, and system-building roles where I can create structure, improve efficiency, and help teams achieve their goals.

What I'm looking for
I’m a corporate banking and relationship management professional with 7+ years of experience building and managing high-value client portfolios in Oman’s financial sector. I’ve served as the primary relationship point of contact for 30+ corporate clients, supporting exposure exceeding OMR 90 million while maintaining strong retention and portfolio quality.
I specialize in credit structuring and financial statement analysis—preparing and presenting credit proposals with in-depth financial analysis, sector evaluation, and a clear business rationale to support consistent approval outcomes. I also lead full due diligence (ownership structure, financial performance, sector risk, and regulatory standing), then perform periodic portfolio monitoring to identify early risk indicators and proactively flag emerging credit concerns.
In my current work, I deepen my focus on risk and compliance by assessing SME funding applications, assigning internal risk ratings, and performing CDD/EDD and ongoing monitoring in line with AML/CFT requirements. As the Founder of Way Out Financial Advisory, I combine rigorous financial analysis with practical guidance—delivering business plans and projections for SMEs and start-ups seeking funding or strategic financial support.
