I'm offering
As an IPMA qualified Project Manager and Lean Six Sigma Green belt, I have managed various programs of work for Finance, HR and IT, which has given me a rich understanding in each of these areas. I have over 19 years experience in various finance based roles, specialising in process improvement and transformation. Change excites me and I'm comfortable working in challenging environments. I really do have a passion for process improvement and I'm well known for my efficiency! I'm a bit of a geek at heart and love to explore new technology and new ways of doing things.
