about your COO
I’m Maryam Nizam, your on-call COO.
An effective COO brings a steady yet agile hand to turn a CEO’s vision into reality. With two decades of experience across enterprise and startup settings, I specialize in building scalable operations that drive global market expansion and sustained profitability.
My blueprint for success combines strategic planning, team empowerment, and constant analysis, communication, and action. Whether rejuvenating a finance division to $150B in assets, preparing an agritech startup for funding, or tripling revenue for an aviation client, I’ve built the foundations for businesses to scale and thrive.
In 2023, I transitioned from the corporate world to focus full-time on supporting small businesses—vital engines of our economy and communities. My diverse industry experience, coupled with my ability to wear multiple hats, allows me to tackle complex leadership challenges with confidence and creativity.
Based in Toronto, with international experience in the US, Ireland, the Philippines, India, and the Middle East, I bring a global perspective and deep insights into market trends. When I’m not optimizing operations, I indulge my creative side by baking and hosting gatherings—because bringing people together is at the heart of what I do, personally and professionally.
An external perspective can jumpstart your journey to business success. Let’s talk about how I, and as applicable, my team of cross-functional experts, can help you build a scalable, future-forward business.
