About Me

I am working as a MI Officer for the Home Office in Cardiff with counter terrorism security clearance.

My role is to analyse performance statistics and other data, design and producing weekly, monthly and ad-hoc reports for senior management, and internal and external stakeholders. I have worked with project managers and consultants within this role to identify better working practices for reduction of cycle times while maintaining decision quality and working within policy.
I have designed, built and provide ongoing support for a number of business critical databases, am responsible for the promotion of information management issues and provide technical support for my coworkers.

At this time, I am on secondment with Performance Services. This involves development of management information and workflow applications as part of a national performance suite. Development is primarily in VBA and SQL through ODBC, ADO and DAO connections across Excel and Access platforms.

I have facilitated the regional teams in reaching public service agreement targets and demonstrating a year on year improvement in performance. Several VBA tools that I produced to aid in this have been implemented in other regions and adapted centrally for national performance. I have modeled projected performance for this and the previous fiscal year to produce the business forecast for my business area and contributed in the production of business forecasts for other business areas in the region.

I have a proven track record as an adaptable, innovative and conscientious employee and am equally at ease working solo or part of a team. Whilst strictly adhering to legal and policy guidelines I am confident advising on and implementing process improvements and change where necessary to maximise efficiency and improve working practices. I am motivated in my own personal and professional development, improving my skills with IT applications and developing professional skills.
