I grew up in sunny and overly populated Athens where I went to an English school and worked with my mum as a clown from a very young age. I studied Air Transport Management at Loughborough University and then landed my first ever “proper” job at Heathrow as a security officer in 2013. I was fortunate enough to be selected for a fastrack management course called the “Grow Our Own” Managers Scheme which propelled me into the weird and wonderful world of Heathrow and opened my eyes to a whole range of opportunities. I feel very proud and privileged to work at Heathrow.I am an energetic, proactive individual with a degree in Air Transport Management and 15 years experience of the Aviation Industry in Projects and Operations at London Heathrow Airport. I approach work with tenacity and structure, with particular concern for detail and accuracy. I have experience in stakeholder and regulator engagement and in influencing and driving business decisions and improvements with clear and accurate data analysis and reporting. I believe I am a self motivated individual with strong interpersonal skills and work ethic, dependable, responsible, with a high sense of duty, who has the ability to communicate effectively at all levels from senior managers to frontline staff. I regularly seek to find more effective and efficient ways of working by experiencing and adapting to different situations.Skills and Work Experience • BSc Air Transport Management- Loughborough University• Incident Management Team (IMT), information and incident recorder for IMT• Ability to exercise good judgement and decision making• Influencing & challenging multiple stakeholders and business managers• Full HAL Authorised Signatory- Approving temporary and permanent Heathrow Airside ID’s.• Project, people and event management• Strong communication – written& verbal, and interpersonal skills• Proven analytical and data interpretation skills- KPI’s, reporting dashboards and performance metrics at business and Exec and Strategic level and for Airline Committees.• Understanding and key involvement in Economics & Regulation, Airport Auditing and Assurance and Civil Aviation Authority(CAA) decisions and activities within a tightly regulated industry.• Green Belt- Lean & Six Sigma AccreditedKeen interest in NLP- especially within the working environment
