I am a seasoned professional specializing in CFO advisory roles across today’s dynamic industries, with over 25 years of extensive experience in financial transformation, debt restructuring, IT transformation, and project management. As a Chartered Accountant with additional certifications in Information Systems (CISA, CISM), Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, and UAE VAT laws, I bring both strategic and technical expertise to effectively address the complexities of contracting and related sectors.
In my previous roles as CFO for leading contracting companies such as Ali Al-Ghanim & Sons, United Gulf Construction Co., and ISCO, I spearheaded financial and operational transformations that delivered substantial value across EPC, maintenance, and industrial projects. I successfully managed multi-country operations spanning Kuwait, GCC countries, and India, overseeing financial restructuring, optimizing banking relationships (with facilities exceeding $2 billion), and implementing business process automation to enhance profitability and drive cost efficiencies.
Currently, as a CFO Advisor with The Mandate Consultancy, my projects include leading a major debt restructuring initiative for a prominent Kuwaiti family office. I have also provided strategic advisory services for large-scale projects in the contracting and industrial sectors, collaborating with multinational organizations to achieve impactful results. Additionally, I am engaged with Qatar’s largest sports retailer as a Financial Advisor, focusing on corporate restructuring, finance and IT transformation, and operational excellence.
With a proven track record of driving strategic growth, ensuring financial stability, and delivering transformative results across diverse organizations—including public listed companies and family offices—I am committed to empowering businesses to achieve sustainable success and create long-term value.
