ABOUT SHABANA ASSEN
I am a Senior Project Manager with extensive experience delivering complex regulatory change projects, combining regulatory scrutiny, data risk and technology change for Tier-1 UK and global financial services organisations. I have led large-scale, multi-year remediation programmes with global teams and significant budgets, including GDPR, data protection, AML, sanctions, financial crimes, CRS/FATCA, and regulatory reporting. I am frequently engaged to recover and stabilise underperforming programmes, restoring delivery confidence and reducing regulatory and reputational exposure. I am also a contract specialist who enjoys quickly understanding business needs to create pragmatic delivery roadmaps and convince senior stakeholders to prioritise regulatory change. I am confident in taking ownership of delivery decisions from early discovery through to execution. I use governance, risk, financial, and delivery insights to shape decisions, manage trade-offs, and maintain momentum, moving programmes beyond reporting to outcome-focused delivery. I work with my teams and stakeholders to unblock delivery by setting high standards, simplifying complexity, and communicating with clarity. My leadership style is people-centred and decisive, creating focus, protecting teams from distraction, and ensuring delivery meets regulatory expectations, audit requirements, and business objectives.
