Summary

I’ve spent the last few years deep in the world of data, pricing, and operations—figuring out how to make complex processes run smoother, faster, and with fewer headaches. Whether it’s untangling pricing puzzles at HP, leading a team at Oracle, or training new hires on the nitty-gritty details most people gloss over, I thrive when there’s a problem to solve and a team to support.

Here’s what I bring to the table:

  • Process Fixer: I don’t just follow workflows—I rebuild them. At Oracle, I helped design training that cut through confusion, and at HP, I streamlined pricing strategies so sales teams could focus on selling, not paperwork.
  • Data & Details Person: Contracts, compliance, pricing adjustments—I’ve handled the kind of work where one small mistake can cost thousands. I’ve built checks, balances, and habits to make sure nothing slips through.
  • Team Builder: Nothing makes me happier than seeing a new hire go from lost to confident. I’ve mentored, trained, and supported teammates because strong ops depends on strong people.
  • Cross-Team Collaborator: Sales, IT, finance—I’ve worked with all of them. Good ops isn’t just about ticking boxes; it’s about understanding what each team needs and making it happen.
  • Calm Under Pressure: Tight deadlines, last-minute changes, high-stakes requests? I’ve handled them all. The key? Staying organized, asking the right questions, and keeping a clear head.

Beyond the skills—why me?
I care about getting things right, not just done. I ask why before automating a process. I’d rather over-communicate than assume. And I believe the best ops people don’t just maintain systems—they make them better.

As a team lead, my role involves handling complex and time-sensitive requests with a high rate of profitability, while supporting my team with their cases when necessary.

I take on the responsibility of mentoring new hires as their buddy, ensuring they integrate smoothly into the team.

Additionally, I participate in training programs for new employees and organize periodic refreshers on intricate policies and programs.

Collaborating closely with my manager and department director, I contribute to enhancing our knowledge base and updating outdated procedures to improve efficiency (e.g. helped in creating our CQT training for the whole department).

I also perform audit checks and reviews as needed, ensuring our operations meet high standards. Delegating tasks effectively is another important aspect of my role, ensuring that responsibilities are distributed efficiently within the team.

In my role as a DM specialist, I handle complex issues during the renewal process, like adjusting prices, creating detailed quotes, and managing contract changes to support up selling efforts. This includes tasks such as repricing SW/HW, assigning licenses, coordinating contract end dates, merging agreements, and calculating partner pricing.

I take pride in ensuring that all policies, especially those related to repricing and MSL, are meticulously reviewed and followed to maintain compliance and efficiency.

Beyond these responsibilities, I actively participate in internal summits, specialised programs, and implementation projects to stay informed and contribute effectively to our team's goals.

Collaborating closely with Customer Success Managers, Sales teams, Collections, and IT departments is a key part of my day-to-day work. By working together closely, we tackle challenges head-on and find the best solutions to meet our clients' needs and expectations.

My role focused on delivering pricing support to HP's Sales team and fostering strong cross-department relationships within the EMEA region. I analysed margins and pricing to ensure accuracy and profitability in sales quotations, while working to simplify pricing processes and develop competitive proposals.

Focused on market share and revenue goals, I also mentor and train new colleagues, contributing to HP's overall success.

Technical support specialist

Accenture
