As a multidisciplinary leader with 14 years of deep-rooted experience in the banking sector, I specialize in the intersection of Human Resources, IT Security, and Industrial Engineering. Throughout my career at VakıfBank, I have successfully transitioned from core HR operations—such as performance management, compensation & benefits, and talent planning—to leading digital transformation and security governance initiatives. Currently, as an Assistant Manager, I bridge the gap between people and technology. I oversee Identity and Access Management (IAM) for critical banking systems while leading Business Process Optimization projects to enhance organizational resilience. My unique background allows me to view HR not just as an administrative function, but as a data-driven strategic pillar. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Business Administration, focusing my research on "Business Continuity Planning and Crisis Management in Banking". My goal is to develop resilient management frameworks that protect both human capital and operational integrity during disaster periods. By combining my Master’s in AI Engineering with my extensive HR and security expertise, I aim to drive sustainable corporate growth through algorithmic management and advanced people analytics.
