About

I have worked as a Lead BA, Project Manager, Scrum Master, Test Manager and Product Owner within the Banking and Commodities area performing large scale data integration / migrations / process re-engineering and application decommissioning / upgrades throughout my career from Front Office through to Finance. My extensive experience in creating User Stories, Backlog ordering, As Is, To Be, Process documentation, GAP and TOM’s from both functional and technical perspectives using SWOT, PESTLE, MoSCoW, using Waterfall, Agile & Kanban SDLC project deliveries. This has allowed me to adapt to multiple work environments to deliver change and projects within budget and time. The multiple SDLC methodologies I have utilised has allowed successful delivery of projects; from streamlining through to optimisation and process / technical re-engineering. I have certifications in Business Analysis, ITIL, Agile Methodology, Prince2 Practitioner and Green Belt in Six Sigma.
