My technical proficiency includes a broad range of project and change management tools, as well as Agile and Waterfall methodologies, ensuring comprehensive management of project lifecycles from initiation to benefits realization. Throughout my career, I have successfully managed complex transformational change projects, aligning strategic business aims with technology solutions to drive process improvements. In roles such as Project Coordinator for Microbit and Lifting Systems, and Programme Coordinator at the University of Northampton, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to coordinate multi-phase projects, facilitate stakeholder engagement, and maintain rigorous quality standards. My leadership skills include cross-functional collaboration, supplier management, and effective communication, enabling me to lead teams and projects to successful outcomes.
