About Dinusha

Mechanical engineer with a PhD in medical robotics, I am an experienced project manager (Project/Program/Change Manager, Scrum Master, Project Controller, PMO) capable of leading complex technical initiatives in pharma, finance, payments, rail and startups — and open to assignments outside these sectors. Accustomed to working with multicultural teams worldwide, I am comfortable remote and on-site. I lead teams of 5–30 people as a servant‑leader, translate technical jargon for decision-makers, manage risks and budgets (>€100M), and drive change management to ensure compliance, quality and measurable outcomes. Calm, structured and resilient under pressure, I bring operational rigour and strategic vision to deliver robust, cost‑optimised solutions. Available to travel to client sites (approximately once per month) — daily rate differs when travel is required.
