Ooredoo Qatar

I was entrusted with the management of a portfolio within Ooredoo's business that generated a significant portion of our B2B revenue, accounting for over 40%. Through my strategic planning,  executed various FIFA initiatives that yielded positive outcomes, including the creation of new product offerings, CAPEX savings, and a 25% increase in revenue. My aptitude for problem-solving allowed me to take the lead on network transformation initiatives for public education institutions in Qatar and update our "Network and Unified Communications" portfolio with relevant product offerings.

As a blue ocean strategist guided Ooredoo's SDWAN and NFV strategy, supporting the transition from legacy network services to managed network services (NaaS). My versatility in both project and people management was demonstrated in my ability to lead a team of around 50 experts in the development of new products and initiatives.
