En résumé

Between 2001 and 2006, I worked for Deloitte & Touche between 2001 and 2006, first as Information Technology Specialist, then as Senior Business Consultant. I had the privilege to be involved in many important consultancies and IT-related projects in the EMEA region and lead multi-disciplinary teams of consultants and business partners on the implementation of many software packages, as well as consultancies funded by the World Bank, IFAD and other donors. I developed an excellent understanding of Organizations, how they work and the role effective Project Management can have in the achievement of Business Strategies. I also gained substantial experience in the design, development of information systems and technology strategies, systems reviews and systems implementation for a wide spectrum of private and public organizations.

On 13 March 2006, I joined UNESCO. I have contributed on the UN project for the alignment of financial reporting relating to IT spending. This involves analysis of financial data against benchmark established at the UN level.

On the management of Project, I support project delivery in term of methodology, stakeholder analysis and benchmarking indicators, documentation of functional and non-functional requirements after consultation with Project team members, Internal Process Owners and End-Users.

I have trained over 200 staff members on various Business Processes including Results-Based Management. I also attended high-level meetings and prepared documentation related to IT governance issues and how our Information Technology should be better aligned with the expectations of both internal users and Governing Bodies.

I am fluent in both English and French and have good spoken and written Arabic.
