About Yousri

Freelance senior IT consultant, I undertake IT director-level assignments to structure, transform, and secure IT operations, infrastructure, and cloud environments in international large accounts - Pernod Ricard, Sodexo, Suez.
My added value: securing critical RUN while driving transformation projects, with a strong focus on SLAs, costs, suppliers, risks, and service continuity. I bridge the gap between executive strategy and operational reality with direct reporting to CTO/CIO levels.
