About

Hi, I’m Lara Reić, a Croatian-native project manager focused on operations and client delivery across EMEA & the U.S., with 5+ years of leading cross-functional initiatives. I build lean processes and define clear ownership using tools like Jira, Trello, and Asana, ensuring stakeholders stay aligned and work moves smoothly from start to finish.

I’m a hands-on executor and strong communicator who thrives in fast-paced environments. My background spans stakeholder management, SOP design, KPI reporting, and agile delivery, with experience in recruitment campaigns and end-to-end project enablement. I even shipped a GPT-powered internal assistant to automate repetitive recruitment tasks and boost throughput, freeing the team to tackle higher‑value work.
