Background

About Preran Devaiah

With a background in Computer Science Engineering and a strong foundation in finance and strategy, I have built my career at the intersection of technology, investment banking, and business strategy. I began my journey at an investment bank, working in the foreign exchange team, where I was responsible for software development and middle/back-office operations. Seeking a more strategic role, I transitioned to AV Developers, where I led research and strategic projects in asset management, portfolio diversification, and operational strategy. Driven by a desire to strengthen my strategic acumen, I pursued an MBA at Lancaster University, where I graduated with two class awards and multiple individual and team achievements. My MBA experience deepened my expertise in strategy, change management, and financial services operations. Currently, I work at Offa, a financial institution specializing in property financing, as a Strategic Change Manager, leading operational and strategic transformations within the Ops and Strategy vertical. My focus is on driving efficiency, optimizing processes, and implementing strategic initiatives to enhance business performance.
