OBJECTIVE
I am currently responsible for dozens of highly complex projects involving
Enterprise Clients and Fortune 500 companies. I am the lead for all high level
projects, contract negotiations, RFP’s, budgeting, financial planning, client care,
vendor relationship management, outsourcing, mentoring, technical leadership,
software research, and product execution. I am required to learn and adapt to an
ever changing list of technical and leadership responsibilities. I have a proven
track record for success and execution.
Along with a vast set of technical skills, I possess a wealth of business experience.
I am very comfortable leading others and making key decisions that have a
positive outcome. I am no stranger to complex tasks, time constraints, and
working through difficult situations. I regularly conduct meetings with key
stakeholders of Enterprise organizations and C-Level executives and have a knack
for client social adaptability. I am an exceptional listener with a will to learn and
mold myself to any situation or role. My passion and strengths include finding
efficiency through the use of technology and information by utilizing key
performance indicators as well as studying human behavior to lead, train, and
realize a winning outcome.
I have gone as far as I can in my current role, and I am looking for a new
opportunity that will allow me to achieve new heights.
Thank you for the opportunity and your time… Max
