Jim Veevaert
General Manager
at Probably Monsters
Attia is a world class Head of Delivery. She is a great partner to product, engineering, and design teams and operates at a leadership level. I had the privilege of working with her for a few years and appreciated her attention to detail in overseeing multi-layered roadmaps and managing complex projects through Jira. She is a great mentor to the people and teams she has managed, and is a trusted colleague.
James Edwards
Principal Architect | Digital Innovation & Transformation
Attia was pivotal as Head of Delivery. Attia is one of those rare people who brings structure, clarity, and calm to complex environments and consistently delivers.
She aligns stakeholders, ensuring everyone is informed, focused, and working towards shared goals. Her deep understanding of agile delivery methodologies and her outcome oriented mindset make her instrumental in improving ways of working.
Attia is incredibly well organised and methodical in her approach, managing complex release cycles, improving delivery pipelines, and fostering high performing teams. She ensures quality is never compromised and is proactive in surfacing risks, removing blockers, and pushing the continuous improvement agenda.
What stands out to me most is her ability to build trust and collaboration across teams and functions, positively impacting teams' ability to ship quality products at pace and scale.
Any team would be lucky to have her, and I hope to work with her again in the future.
CEO
Memrise
Attia is the rare operator who turns strategy into shipped outcomes. As CEO of Memrise, I had the privilege of working with her on my leadership team, where she was consistently the practical voice in the room, translating ambition into a clear plan, aligning stakeholders, and delivering the right things.
If you’re looking to improve your company’s ability to execute, Attia embodies exactly what you need. She can zoom in to fix daily operations and zoom out to rethink delivery systems in their entirety. She can also help coach execs through strategy and change, even when it scares them.
If you’re scaling and need outcomes, not ceremonies, hire Attia. She’ll build an operating system that sticks over the long haul. I’d work with Attia again in a heartbeat.
Jovi Francis
Sn. Business Development Manager at Vention
I have worked with Attia for the last 3.5 years as she has managed several members of our extended team provided to Memrise. Attia demonstrates professionalism, technical management and leadership to the highest standard whilst remaining a fantastic human being. I think I can speak for all of the Vention team working with Memrise when I say that Attia is a pleasure to work with and truly strives to get the best out of each team member individually. I'd recommend Attia in a heartbeat.
Ross Dudley
Principal Service Designer
at GDS
Attia has been a pleasure to work with, she fully understands the GDS approach and is a strong ally for making sure that user research and design is at the heart of development even when external challenges and politics threaten the progress. She is a kind and attentive Delivery Manager who gives individuals the time and resources they need to deliver their own great work, remove blockers and protect the team so that progress is not stifled, a challenge when working in Government at times.
Pavel Shevtsov
Senior Software Engineer
at Vention
I had the pleasure of working with Attia at Memrise, where she served as the Development Manager leading our technical team. It was a particularly challenging period with a high volume of complex tasks, and Attia handled it all exceptionally well. She effectively coordinated multiple sub-teams, managed tight deadlines, and ensured smooth collaboration across the board. Despite the pressure, she always made time for individual team members and their concerns.
Attia is an outstanding communicator, a highly capable manager, and a supportive colleague. Her empathy, reliability, and leadership make her not only a great professional but also a truly inspiring person to work with (she wrote a book! common!). Any team would be lucky to have her.
Emanuele Blanco
CTO
at Moneyfarm
Attia has been a huge asset for Moneyfarm. She's a very capable and has got a wide knowledge of Agile practices and, most importantly, principles. Attia has been pivotal in analyse the way our Product Engineering teams work suggesting improvements both at a team level and at a wider organisation level. Her input into the Tech Leadership group has been invaluable. Attia helped us monitor and improve our delivery process, specially in complex cross-team initiatives, and introduce agility in other parts of the business. I would love to work with Attia again in the future and I recommend her to any company needing to take their delivery processes to the next level.
Ambuj Pathak
Senior Business Analyst
at Ministry of Justice
I have reported to Attia in Ministry of Justice project, and find her very articulate and diligent with her work. She empowers you to prioritize and do your work efficiently with no road blockers. During weekly scrums we agree on the key priorities that we need to deliver and she ensures that I have all what is needed to deliver it on/before time.
My concerns were addressed and responded right away, and even followed up later in the week or fortnight to make sure my issues have been resolved. Her patience and willingness to help have made me motivated to do the best job I can. Thanks a lot & wish you very best for your next assignment.
