With more than four years of experience in managing small, medium, and long-term projects in banking and fintech, I have successfully led and delivered multiple projects for 18 clients with a combined value of over £1.5 million.
As an agile project manager, I have strong skills in customer relationship management, team management, business development, and creative problem-solving. I have coordinated internal and external resources, tracked project performance, identified and mitigated risks, and ensured budgetary and technical feasibility. I have also managed training for junior and offshore team members, and facilitated communication and collaboration among stakeholders.
I hold several degrees and certifications, including an MBA, an LLM, Agile PM, Risk PM, and Scrum Master.
With a diverse background spanning project management, strategy implementation, and finance, I bring a wealth of experience to the table. As a Project Manager at Finova, I led a dynamic team in executing over 200 projects and change requests, totaling £1.5 million in value. Through meticulous planning and effective team management, I achieved a 40% increase in project deployments, directly contributing to heightened client satisfaction and business growth.
Notably, my strategic initiatives facilitated successful migrations to Finova's platform and the seamless execution of projects necessitated by regulatory requirements, such as those mandated by the FCA.
Transitioning to the role of Strategy Project/Program Manager at the National Bank of Egypt, I orchestrated the delivery of 50 projects across various departments, including Compliance, HR, and Operations. By aligning project objectives with the bank's overarching strategy, I ensured the successful implementation of initiatives aimed at enhancing operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. From coordinating the onboarding of 3000 new clients to spearheading the development of online banking capabilities, I played a pivotal role in driving strategic initiatives that propelled the bank forward.
My tenure as a Project Management Officer at GFT Financial Ltd further honed my skills in financial forecasting, stakeholder management, and project oversight. By implementing robust financial tracking and invoicing processes, I successfully reduced outstanding debt and optimized project profitability. Leveraging my expertise in liaising with internal and external stakeholders, I ensured seamless project execution from inception to delivery, resolving disputes and mitigating risks along the way.
Complementing my professional experience is a robust educational background, including an MBA in Business and Entrepreneurship from Imperial College Business School. Additionally, I hold a Master of Law in International Economic Law and a Bachelor of Science in Economics and Social Policy, underscoring my multidisciplinary approach to problem-solving and strategic decision-making.
Driven by a passion for continuous learning and professional development, I am currently undertaking several Project Management Qualifications, including Risk Management, Prince II, and Scrum Master certifications. With a strong foundation in both technical and personal skills, I am equipped to navigate the complexities of project management and drive impactful outcomes in dynamic organizational environments
