Summary

My career objective to leverage my expertise in monitoring and reporting, field operations, project management, and stakeholder engagement in a challenging and dynamic environment to drive social impact and achieve organizational goals.

As an experienced Monitoring and Reporting Officer at Shifa Foundation, I have demonstrated my ability to effectively monitor and evaluate field activities, mentor health workers, prepare narrative reports, and analyze data to provide evidence-based recommendations for program improvement. Similarly, as a Regional Manager at Fincon Services, I have developed and implemented operational strategies to improve efficiency and profitability, managed financial operations, and maintained relationships with key stakeholders.

I have also gained extensive experience in social mobilization, field monitoring, and capacity building through my roles as Deputy Team Leader Cluster-5 at Aurat Foundation, District Coordinator at National Socio-Economic Registry Update (NSER-BISP) Project, and Social Organizer at Waseela-e-Taleem Project. These roles have enabled me to develop strong communication, coordination, and leadership skills, and the ability to identify and address operational challenges at the field level.

I am now seeking a role that will enable me to further utilize my skills and experience to drive change and contribute to the achievement of organizational goals. I am eager to leverage my expertise in monitoring and reporting, project management, stakeholder engagement, and team leadership to drive impact and achieve outcomes that improve the lives of communities.
