I am a highly motivated, ambitious chartered accountant with 25 years of experience gained from working in corporate governance roles across a range of business sectors both in UK and UAE. My key early roles were as a Head of Internal Audit where I specialised in creating new internal audit functions and improving underperforming internal audit functions. I lead change by developing and inspiring team members, understanding and delivering stakeholder requirements and making a modern application of Internal Audit relevant to achieving the strategic business goals. The Internal Audit roles have also given me significant experience in assurance, risk management, fraud investigation, compliance, Sarbanes-Oxley and mergers & acquisitions. I gained experience in a line management role as Head of Business Process Transformation within ADNEC. I led the award winning company wide programme to implement world class quality management and business excellence approaches to the UAE based business. Throughout my entire career I have been viewed as a "go-to" management level problem solver as evidenced by the range of successful projects and initiatives I have led or contributed to.
