Delivering Programmes That Move Capital and Create Impact
Project and programme management professional with 5+ years securing $100M+ in DFI funding and building governance frameworks for complex multi-stakeholder environments. Now EU-based and positioned for implementing organisations managing EU-funded programmes.
Experience Across
What I Bring to EU Programme Environments
Programme Governance
Designing PMO frameworks that give programme directors real-time visibility, clear accountability chains, and decision-support systems — the governance infrastructure EU-funded programmes demand from day one.
DFI & Infrastructure Delivery
Five years leading feasibility studies and appraisal frameworks for $100M+ in DFI-funded infrastructure. That rigour — risk modelling, multi-stakeholder alignment, hard accountability to funders — transfers directly into EU programme environments.
Agile & Scrum Implementation
PSM I certified and practitioner-applied: I introduced Scrum to a traditional consulting delivery environment, improving throughput across concurrent multi-client workstreams. Methodology that actually lands, not just gets presented.
Led four infrastructure feasibility studies securing $100M+ in DFI funding from AFREXIM Bank and Arise IIP — covering viability assessment, risk modelling, and multi-party stakeholder alignment across complex cross-border projects.

Where I Am Now
Enrolled in the MA EU Studies (Management of EU Projects) programme at FH Burgenland in Eisenstadt, Austria — running November 2025 through August 2027. This is not a career pivot; it is a precision investment in understanding the EU programme management environment from the inside.
PSM I certified since December 2025. Completing the cPMA (IPMA/GPM) certification, expected May 2026. Actively targeting EU programme implementing organisations across Austria, Germany, Belgium, and beyond.
What I’m Looking For
Programme management internships and junior-to-mid level roles at development consultancies, NGOs, and public bodies managing EU-funded programmes in infrastructure, economic development, and governance.
Organisations like Landell Mills, Transtec, AMBERO, Metis GmbH, and international development partners active in EU delegations and implementing organisations. Based in Austria — open to international engagement wherever the programmes are.

What Managing DFI-Funded Infrastructure Teaches You About EU Programme Delivery
Five years securing and governing development finance investments in Africa taught me things about programme governance that no EU funding handbook ever mentions. Here is what transfers — and what doesn't.
