About Leo

I help organisations deliver operational change, infrastructure improvements, and service optimisation programmes within complex, live environments ensuring minimal disruption, strong governance, and measurable performance gains.

As an Operations Project Manager with experience supporting engineering and facilities led operations at Leadec and IMtech Engineering, I bring structured project governance, stakeholder coordination, contractor management, and operational risk control aligned to corporate and regulated environments.

•Strong RAID management, programme tracking, and milestone control
•Experience delivering change in live operational and asset-dependent environments
•Cross-functional coordination across engineering, facilities, utilities, and corporate stakeholders
•Supplier and contractor performance management
•Governance reporting aligned to senior leadership and PMO standards

What Makes Me Stand Out

•Ability to implement transformation initiatives without disrupting business-as-usual operations
•Practical understanding of engineering and infrastructure constraints in operational settings
•Structured, data-driven decision-making with strong cost and schedule control
•Blend of strategic academic grounding (MSc Project Management, MBA) with hands-on operational delivery

Typical Projects & Deliverables I Handle

•Facilities upgrades and operational improvement programmes
•Infrastructure and asset maintenance workstreams
•Process standardisation and continuous improvement initiatives
•Contractor led engineering packages and service enhancements
•Operational risk mitigation and compliance-focused initiatives
