About Irina

Dear Sir/Madame,

I am very interested in applying for the Project Manager role (Ref GB-PM).

I am an experienced Project Manager with a background in a Global corporate pharmaceutical environment (utilising PRINCE2 methodology). I am familiar with corporate infrastructures and working practices. My core skills consist of:

- Project management (end to end);

- Business Analysis and process modelling (interviews, workshops, JAD meetings etc.);

- Business processes improvement;

- Matrix management of Development/Test/Implementation teams;

- Resource and Budget management;

- Technical Change/Release/Test management (Waterfall environment, awareness of Agile environment);

- Planning and Scheduling individual projects and complex Security Updates on a Global Integration platform; then managing them through the change lifecycle;

- Stakeholder management;

- Multiple vendor (offshore and onshore) management.

My previous roles provided me with an extensive experience in project management, SDLC, delivery of upgrades to MQ series, Oracle DBs and interfaces.

I am accustomed to working in a demanding environment, monitoring, managing and mitigating various project risks and issues.

I proved to be successful at gathering and analysing Global stakeholders' requirements through a variety of modelling techniques, producing project documentation, building trusted relationships across boundaries; and successfully delivering projects.

I am experienced in leading, managing and mentoring 3rd party technical teams, ensuring adherence to strict company standards, Quality and Compliance processes.

I have a Bachelor Honours Degree and background in computer science; which has proved to be a significant advantage in understanding technical issues. I am Prince2 and ITIL foundation qualified.

My core strengths are strong analytical thinking and problem solving skills, passion for delivering high quality results, strong interpersonal, negotiating and effective communication skills.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Irina Wood
