I have a sound eductaional background and done master in Business Administration (MBA-Finance) from Arid Agriculture University Rawalpindi in 2007 and MSc.in Gender and Women Studies from Allama Iqbal Open University, Islamabad in 2014.

I started my professional career with UN-IOM ( United Nations International Organization for Migration) as an intern in 2007 and was employed with same organization for past 13 years.

I steadily worked with dedication and was promoted to Operation Assistant position after completion of my internship where my core job was registration of refugees in IOM data base,contacting them for trainings and updating and maintaining record files and project inventories. My dedication, hard work and eagerness to learn helped me in professional growth and I was further alleviated to Coordinator positions for two refugee projects for Australia and Canada in 2013.

In 2018 I was further promoted to Coordinator and Facilitator position for Canadian Orientation Abroad (COA) project. In this position my core job was to coordinate all Admin, Finance, HR and other operational activities involved of project with added responsibilities of a trainer/facilitator.

Maintaining effective communications with my project global management based in Geneva and smooth communication about project activities within IOM management in coordination with my immediate supervisor was one of key and important responsibilities.

Ensuring completion and effective management of project activities assigned to team members and management of project staff in fields was another important and integral part of my job. Periodic visit of filed offices to take care of project activities and requirements was part of my job.

Preparation of program budget in coordination with my immediate and global supervisor was one of others important responsibilities. Timely monitoring of project activities and budget and making sure that budget and activities were on track were my responsibilities.

Preparation of statistical and narrative reports about project activities for global management and for donor review was an important duty assigned to me. I was responsible to prepare quarterly and annual statistical reports by using UN-IOM global MiMosa software.Quarterly and annual narrative reports were prepared by using COA global reporting templates and my responsibilities were to ensure timely submission of narrative and statistical reports with accurate and detailed information.

As a Trainer/Facilitator I was conducting refugee trainings in Islamabad, Karachi and Peshawar.As a trainer I was required to stay abreast with latest training methodologies and helped COA management in curriculum development and in providing trainings to the newly hired COA staff in IOM Pakistan.

As a Project Coordinator and Facilitator I had attended project management and training workshops and conferences in other IOM global locations including Canada, Australia, Turkey, Thailand and Philippines multiple times.These global workshops and conferences were great source of learning new project management techniques, about new training methodologies , about how to become an effective trainer and learning about working in teams.

I had done two mobile trainings for another COA global site in Dushanbe,Tajikistan. I have also done an escort visit with three minors to London, England. These both were unique experience as this kind of duties involve huge responsibilities. These were done successfully and it helped me in enriching my experience of humanitarian work.

Beside international trainings and conferences I attended training and conferences held in UNIOM Islamabad office and in other sister UN organizations as well as IOM online trainings and virtual certificate courses related to security, project management,humanitarian work ethics and conduct to name a few.

Through out my time at UN-IOM from 2007 till July 2020, I was bestowed with opportunities to learn and grow as a professional.Working in dynamic field of Project management and Trainer /Facilitator added much in my knowledge and experiences.
