Background

About Rawiri Hudson

Welcome to my LinkedIn profile! I'm Rawiri Hudson, a seasoned and confident project manager with a proven track record of delivering impactful IT projects. Over the past year, I've successfully completed twenty one IT projects, primarily involved in a business separation, infrastructure upgrades, and frontline service enhancements. I recently earned my PRINCE2 certification, further solidifying my expertise in project management. My recent projects have involved rolling out new laptops, Wi-Fi, and printing solutions, as well as managing complex back-office network, infrastructure, and application separations. I've also led user email and shared mailbox migrations, updates to Active Directory, and the implementation of a suite of new tools. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working in various industries and roles, from assisting media executives to leading projects for New Zealand's largest electricity companies. This journey has equipped me with a diverse skill set and a passion for driving business success. As a project manager, I excel in project planning, stakeholder management, and effective communication. My ability to balance the needs of customers, businesses, and third-party stakeholders has consistently resulted in positive outcomes. I'm a data-driven problem solver who advocates for the use of data to discover opportunities and implement effective solutions. Whether it's reducing operational expenses, implementing Lean and Six Sigma methodologies, or founding my own Ecommerce brand, I'm driven to exceed key performance indicators and drive continuous improvements. Outside of the corporate world, I founded and owned Cheeky Vitamins Limited, where I developed scalable operational processes, created a brand, and navigated the complexities of compliance and tax laws. My efforts led to products being featured in publications and securing wholesale contracts.
