Faridah is a highly skilled and capable finance professional. She is a meticulous and conscientious colleague who shows great aptitude in handling a diverse range of issues and yet deliver amazing results. She possesses a "can do" attitude and her upbeat personality enable her to interact effectively with all levels. She is truly a great person to work with; a great mentor as well and it has been my great pleasure to have work alongside with her.

Faridah is a very experienced professional in different pratices that I was very fortunate to work with at Aviva. She is a true professional, committed, diligent and a true team player. I would definitely recommend Faridah to any organisation who is looking for a dynamic leader.
