I fix operations for a living. Not the glamorous kind of fixing — the kind where you spend three days tracing why a report is off by 0.3%. 6+ years across banking, contact centers, retail, and government in Saudi Arabia.

I'm a builder. I don't just manage operations — I design the systems that make them work. Then I document why they almost didn't.

I've spent 6+ years in Saudi operations — banking, contact centers, retail, government — standardizing processes that people were doing 4 different ways, building reporting that actually gets used, and occasionally convincing teams that yes, the data matters. I genuinely enjoy this stuff. Which either makes me good at it or slightly unusual. Probably both.

  • Built forecasting models that actually account for seasonality and business drivers (not just copy-pasting last year's numbers)
  • Set up real-time management frameworks so when SLAs dip, we have a plan — not a panic
  • Leading workforce budgeting: FTE planning, cost forecasting, scenario analysis — the stuff that keeps finance happy

Scope: Retail store operations

  • Took WFM into retail — different world from contact centers, but the same fundamentals apply
  • Handled demand planning for products: making sure shelves weren't empty or overstocked (harder than it sounds)
  • Built integrated plans connecting sales forecasts, product demand, and staffing — so everything talked to each other
