Graduate Profiles Detail India

As a Project Manager at Aries Group of Companies, I oversee and manage various projects from initiation to completion. My responsibilities include planning, executing, and closing projects, ensuring they are completed on time, within scope, and within budget. I collaborate with cross-functional teams, stakeholders, and clients to deliver successful projects that meet business objectives.

What I most like about my job is the opportunity to work on diverse projects and collaborate with talented professionals. I enjoy the challenges and rewards that come with managing projects, solving problems, and delivering results that make a positive impact on the business and our clients.

Having an MBA from a UK University provided me with a strong foundation in project management principles, leadership skills, and business acumen. The UK education system's emphasis on critical thinking, problem-solving, and effective communication prepared me well for the challenges of the role. Additionally, the international exposure and networking opportunities during my studies in the UK helped me build connections and gain insights that were beneficial in securing my job as a Project Manager.

One of the key pieces of advice I would offer to international students aspiring to a career as a project manager is to focus on gaining practical experience through internships or part-time jobs related to project management. During my MBA, I had the opportunity to intern at MWSC (Maldives Govt.), which provided me with hands-on experience and practical knowledge in the field.

Networking and building relationships within the industry are also crucial. Networking can open doors to opportunities and connections that can be invaluable in your career journey. Lastly, continuous learning and staying updated with project management methodologies and tools will help in staying competitive and advancing in your career.
