Description

I’m a Planning Engineer based in the UAE with experience in client as well contractor side, supporting high-value developments and mission-critical infrastructure projects across Europe, MENA, and APAC.

I have been involved in projects with a combined development value exceeding AED 12 billion in high-rise residential developments, along with data center programs ranging from 5 MW to 100 MW capacity.

My expertise lies in project planning, progress monitoring, procurement management and transforming complex project data into clear, decision-driven insights for stakeholders and senior management.

I support clients with:

• Weekly and monthly progress reporting

• Project dashboards and performance tracking (Excel-based and customized formats)

• Primavera P6 schedule development, updates, and monitoring

. Contracts and amendments

. Payments, variations and cost analysis

• Delay identification and basic analysis

• KPI tracking and reporting frameworks

• PMO support and reporting standardization

Beyond reporting, I bring a strong analytical and strategic perspective, including:

• Business plan review and alignment with project delivery

• Strategic analysis and project performance evaluation

• Critical thinking for risk identification and mitigation

• Management-level reporting tailored for decision-making

Having worked closely C-suite management, I understand how to structure information that is concise, relevant, and actionable.

If you’re looking for structured, reliable, and insight-driven project reporting support, I’d be glad to collaborate.
