MBA · Cloud Computing · Nearshore IT

Hi, I’m Gabor – a civil servant & tech-aware business professional.

I combine an MBA in International Business with a First Class BSc in Cloud Computing and over 20 years of experience, mainly in the public sector. I work at the intersection of community projects, operations, safety, and digital tools.

Research interests: nearshore IT support models, public sector operations, digital transformation, workplace safety, and technology for social impact (for example a VAW prevention mobile app).

About

Who I am

I am a Civil Servant based in London with over 20 years of professional experience, mainly in the public sector. My day-to-day work includes community projects, workplace safety, logistics, and practical IT support. I enjoy solving real problems, supporting teams, and making complex tasks simpler and safer.

I completed an MBA in International Business (Distinction) and a BSc in Cloud Computing (First Class) at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in London. My academic work includes a business development dissertation on nearshore IT support for UK organisations and an earlier thesis and viva presentation on a mobile application concept to help address Violence Against Women.

Today my focus is a combination of business management, public sector operations, digital tools and safety. I am interested in how these areas connect inside organisations and how they can be improved step by step, using data, reflection, and practical experience. In the future, I plan to continue this path at doctoral level.
