Summary
As a seasoned professional in project and IT management, I excel in driving transformation and delivering strategic initiatives. Currently serving as a Project Manager at Allianz, I specialise in project delivery, IT operations, and agile methodologies, leveraging my expertise in Microsoft Azure, machine learning, and the Scaled Agile Framework. I am actively involved in implementing machine learning models for our Pricing and Underwriting teams and leading transformational projects across the Allianz UK Holdings organisation to enhance employee engagement and drive cultural change. I am a strong advocate for bridging the gap between business and IT, fostering collaboration across diverse delivery functions to achieve cohesive and impactful project outcomes. My career includes pivotal roles at LV= General Insurance, where I thrived as a Senior Project Manager and Senior IT Project Manager, managing complex projects and leading teams in Scrum Master and Epic Manager roles. During my tenure at Rockwell Automation Asia Pacific, I oversaw IT operations across multiple countries, managed a team of over 30 staff, and implemented Six Sigma practices. With a proven track record in people management, application development, and technical project management, I have held both a PMP certification and a SAFe Agile Scrum Master certification. Driven by a passion for innovation and a commitment to excellence, I continuously seek opportunities for improvement and efficiency, ensuring that my teams and projects consistently achieve their goals.
