I currently lead a portfolio of integration projects worth up to £1.5m for DEFRA, where I support the delivery of a national livestock-tracing data service and coordinate data engineering, platform, and reporting workstreams. I work closely with DevOps and engineering teams to align releases and environment readiness with project milestones. I also manage delivery reporting through Power BI KPI dashboards, maintain integrated plans and RAID logs, and help keep stakeholders aligned on priorities, risks, and dependencies. A key part of my role is governance and control. I lead data governance for the service, including RACI ownership, GDPR compliance, and risk management, and I established the project SharePoint site as a single source of truth for documentation, runbooks, decision logs, and budget records. Before moving into project management, I built a strong foundation in the Criminal Investigation Department, where I managed 30+ concurrent investigations under externally imposed deadlines. That experience strengthened my ability to coordinate cross-functional teams, produce evidence-grade documentation, manage risk, and make decisions under pressure. I am results-focused and committed to continuous improvement. I have also redesigned the Business Case Assurance Process for higher-value projects and embedded it across DDTS, improving governance across the directorate. I am a native English and Spanish speaker with working French, and I am open to remote opportunities from Murcia, Spain. ## Professional area ### [Developer & Engineer](https://jobicy.com/resume-category/dev.md)[Management & Operations](https://jobicy.com/resume-category/management.md) ## Skills ### [Budget Management](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/budget-management.md)[Jira](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/jira.md)[Operations Management](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/operations-management.md)[Planning](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/planning.md)[Process Improvement](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/process-improvement.md)[Project Management](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/project-management.md)[Reporting](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/reporting.md)[Risk Management](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/risk-management.md)[Stakeholder Management](https://jobicy.com/resume-skill/stakeholder-management.md) ## Education 2025 Level 4 Associate Project Manager @ QA 2024 APM Project Management Qualification (PMQ) @ Association for Project Management 2022 BSc (Hons) Professional Policing @ Northumbria University 2018 BSc (Hons) Crime & Investigation @ Teesside University 2015 Bachillerato de Ciencias Sociales @ IES Rambla de Nogalte ## Experience 2023 - Present IT Project Manager (Contractor) @ Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (DEFRA) Lead 5 concurrent integration projects delivering DEFRA’s national cattle-tracing data service.
