Haider was qualified who worked with in the program Frosa in Libya .. He was a wonderful role in the implementation of the program are well.
Anna Rissen
Haider worked for me for the last year as a Financial Planning subject matter expert on a challenging and complex BPR programme. Initially brought in for 16 weeks Haider continually demonstrated his value to the programme and was repeatedly extended both in terms of geographical and subject scope. Haider’s Arabic language skills combined with his subject expertise and personable and patient manner ensure he rapidly becomes a trusted partner of all his clients. I would highly recommend Haider for any work in the Gulf region and would welcome the opportunity to work with him again.
