Additional Information

Igor Sevastyanov, FX Derivatives Quant, Director at Deutsche Bank, UK 2021

Andrey is a fantastic IT project manager. When we worked together, he was managing the delivery and rollout of a new generation client-facing electronic trading platform. In a project of this scale the challenges are numerous: business area complexity, many IT teams involved, lots of stakeholders and thousands of users. Andrey successfully overcame the challenges: he learned the business area deep enough, established an efficient communication with the IT teams / sales / trading. He was very result-oriented and consistent in pushing for the end goal: delivering the new platform to the clients. His push really helped everyone stay clearly focused on the delivery - on both sides - IT and business. I really enjoyed working with Andrey, he can be a great contributor to a success of any IT project.

Danilov Grigory, IT/BI Architect, IT Project Manager at T-Systems, Germany, 2020

Andrey is a very competent IT Project Manager. He is an impressive problem solver with excellent technical and soft skills. True leader and team player. He completed all projects to our utmost satisfaction and was rated highly by us.
It has always been an absolute joy to work with him.

Felix A. Kislik. Vice President, General Manager EMEA as T-Systems, Russia 2011

Andrey, during my tenure at T-Systems CIS, was selected by me to directly support the management team on an important initiative to review and restructure employees' performance compensation. Andrey showed himself to be pro-active, detailed oriented and very creative. Good communicator and an independently thinking professional he added noticeable value to the success of this initiative and to the company.
I would recommend Andrey Leontyev as a competent project manager.
