Aya Barghouthi

It had been an invaluable experience to start working as a student, while at the same time obtaining my Bachelor degree, this allowed me to develop a strong base to combine expertise alongside with knowledge & education obtained, and introduced me to the best practices, methodological guidelines, and ethical standards adopted by International and Local organizations and Donors. 

The work experience gained along with my masters’ studies allowed me to develop my capabilities in Business management, Brand management and Customer Relationship Management - Administrational, Strategical, Public Relations and Communications. 

At the same time; working with International & Local organizations and Donors helped me enhance my communication, analytical and persuasive skills and advance me as a valuable team player. 

I believe I have good experience in writing proposals and reports and I am very effective in public presentations and I am able to facilitate workgroups and manage discussions effectively.

I am self-motivated and I possess strong work ethics, taking on duties with professionalism and enthusiasm.  I work well independently but equally so as part of a team, contributing to decision making and providing solutions.

My knowledge goes beyond my education and not limited to my work experience. I am, also, willing and eager to learn about new fields of expertise, as I have demonstrated fast learning capabilities in my previous assignments. Also I see my value as part of my community, therefore; I have volunteered in many projects and local organizations.
