Aarif Mirza
Digital Program & Project Manager SCRUM Master at PwC
Project & Product Manager at PwC
For over 14 years I've been part of successful startups and businesses on 3 continents. I have helped build and grow companies from the ground up and helped push limits of companies that have already been running for years. I love being part of such growth projects where there is a blank canvas and an idea. My drive, determination, push is all it needs to blossom.  These globe-trotting experiences and ability to adapt to new environments and disciplines, give me an edge second to none when problem-solving and shaping strategic focuses and operational approaches for any business.

To be successful in product and project management, I had to learn first hand that the process is never the same and that you have to always be ready for anything. But most importantly, regardless of project or product, the ethos of customer/user first always remains. Design thinking is nothing without Service Design. Having been subjected to both sides of the coin, I've lead my teams with conviction which allows me to tackle each and every hurdle that comes my way. 

Whether I am managing one small project or multiple, my ability to adapt, pivot, and be flexible creates a framework that solidifies my business approach when dealing with adversity. It is my pleasure to bring these skills to any business and company and ensuring products and projects excel and take flight.

I'm looking for a company where I can push my own boundaries and fit into a similar dogma of excellence and dedication to the craft.
