ABOUT SIMONA

Operations (governance & strategy) leader.I equally thrive in organisational strategy co-construction and implementation, and in empowering teams instrumental to successful development and delivery of projects. Endowed with effective influencing skills, and proven ability to build and maintain fruitful relationships across complex organisations with diverse stakeholders, I charismatically lead my colleagues through changes which enhance efficiency in operations delivery. I have three years of experience as Operations Manager, preceded by two years in Project Management. Previously, I accumulated over five years of experience at the research-innovation interface, with a track-record of business development and strategic advice on organisational knowledge exchange policies. With wide interests in natural, life, and social sciences, I enabled successful delivery of projects spanning from sensors to robotics, from data analytics to transition to clean energy, through to developing the blue-green economy potential and applying research to sustainable construction.
