Barbara is a certified scrum master with an ability to support scrum, proficient in planning projects, developing schedules, estimating cost, scrum, monitoring and evaluating projects to ensure adherence to quality standards. I am passionate about managing programs and projects, with 2 years of experience successfully managing humanitarian assistance related projects. One of my greatest achievements was working with the Finance team on the global service delivery model which is a key element of the Secretary General’s management reform agenda, leading to the transformation of administrative support services to more than 40,000 staff globally. The project establishes a number of shared services centers with the objective of enhancing client service levels, improving controls and reducing the cost base. I was responsible for developing the finance parts of the project. I was accountable for actively maintaining an effective project management, communications and change management plan, ensuring completion of key tasks and project milestones within deadlines; coordinating input received from internal and external stakeholders and within the team to ensure timely compliance, reporting on status of project tasks to management. Also, I have a strong interest in conducting research specifically within the framework diversity, inclusion and equity. I am also open to other subjects of interest as I am always willing to leverage every opportunity to learn new things. I have strong writing skills. researching, data analysis and project management skills.
I am at present a graduate student in my final semester and I am actively seeking an opportunity in a diverse working environment where I can contribute towards the burgeoning successes of the organization.
