Summary
I lead complex IT transformation, rollout, and infrastructure projects and combine project management, technical understanding, and hands-on coordination work. I work in different Microsoft environments such as Office 365, Teams, SharePoint, Exchange, Azure AD, Windows migrations, and LAN/WAN infrastructure, and I am used to turning requirements into workable concepts, clear documentation, and structured delivery.
My focus is on keeping large IT programs and projects under control: I coordinate teams and vendors, manage rollout phases, report up to board level, lead workshops, support VIP users, and make sure security, compliance, and operational requirements are met. I have worked in banking, insurance, industry, telecommunications, retail, transport, and defense, including international environments, and I bring many years of experience with migrations, site moves, network setups, and transformation programs.
