About Siamak
I am an Assistant Professor at Warwick Business School with over a decade of experience spanning academic research, university teaching, and industry consulting. My work sits at the intersection of operations research, data analytics, and real-world decision making - from optimising biopharmaceutical manufacturing schedules to building pricing models for one of Turkey's largest retailers.
I work with organisations and individuals who need to make better decisions using data and mathematical rigour. Whether that means designing a bespoke Python-based optimisation tool, delivering an intensive training workshop on revenue management, or helping a team make sense of their data through Tableau, I bring both the analytical depth and the communication skills to make it land.
I have taught and consulted across the UK, Turkey, and internationally, and I am available for short to medium engagements.
