To successfully deliver a SaaS solution from scratch using a user centered approach and working with a close-knit team has been the most exciting thing I have done in my career. However, as an experienced business analyst I will never lose my passion in mentoring others in perfecting this exciting craft. I have been a Strategy & Transformation consultant helping clients to become Digital & Data led businesses. I have done business development and account management for global accounts: monitoring delivery, identifying and developing new opportunities to add value to the client. I have project managed complex consulting engagements leading teams of technology experts. Building teams is a passion. I am known by my peers as a connector, for my ability to bridging the gap between the business and information technology (IT), as well as bridging the gap between user and business needs. I clearly define the problem and the enjoy working with others to find solutions. I thrive on connecting people-to-information, information-to-people and people-to-people. I have been involved in the full development life cycle of many applications from problem identification, business case, requirements analysis, design, coding, testing, change control, implementation, user documentation, change management and training. I am comfortable working in both agile and waterfall approaches. My recent industry knowledge is Healthcare and Medical Practice Management. I have some experience in Retail, Manufacturing, Financial Services and Local Government. I also have industry knowledge in shipping transportation, particularly in operational and transport documentation processes. This includes liner, port, transshipment, terminal, container depot, intermodal rail and truck, shipping agency, forwarders and customs processes. I also have business knowledge of bulk and breakbulk terminal operations, as well as bulk shipping vessel operations and chartering.More...
