10 Minutes With Lovisa Nyman

As a key member of our rapidly growing European team, Lovisa Nyman brings a rare blend of structure, curiosity, and global perspective to her role as Global PMO Lead for RedCloud’s Physical Security practice. Her work sits at the heart of the program’s operational rhythm—turning complex project data into clarity, building processes that actually work, and spotting opportunities for improvement before anyone else sees them. In this conversation, she shares what energizes her about the role, how she balances a truly global schedule, and the unexpected life experiences that shaped her approach to problem-solving. It’s a glimpse into the mindset of someone who quietly keeps an entire program running smoothly while never losing sight of what matters most outside of work.

Describe your role and what you do in a nutshell. 

My work as a Global Project Management Office (PMO) Lead involves reporting on the projects our Physical Security TPMs are working on to ensure we capture all required data throughout the projects and at project close-out, as well as project forecasting for the leads and Technical Program Managers (TPMs) to plan workload. Process improvement is also a big part of the PMO's day-to-day work, ensuring we have clear processes to follow so projects run as smoothly as possible. Data and reports are being created and automated to ensure all data we need is easily accessible and up to date. 

What do you enjoy most or find especially interesting about your current role? 

The possibility of seeing a gap, a process not working, or getting a new idea of what can be improved, and being able to create what's needed to make an improvement. The flexibility of figuring out what’s needed after discussions with the team and the leads, and creating something that will support the whole team and program. 

How do you maintain a healthy work-life balance in your role? 

Being global makes the workdays look different day to day, depending on meetings and what is currently going on. Therefore, I usually work out during my lunch breaks to clear my head after a morning of working with Asia-Pacific (APAC) and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and get a refresh and some energy for later meetings when North America/South America (NASA) wakes up. 

What's one thing people don't know about you that they would be surprised to discover? 

When I studied, I moved to Mexico for one semester to study and learn Spanish. Being from Sweden, this is something that often surprises people. I left my then-boyfriend, now husband, at home for half a year and moved to a country where I did not know the language. It taught me that you can always figure things out, despite how challenging they are. 

What are you passionate about or enjoy outside of work? 

I’ve always liked being active and working out to get energy. Lately, as I build a family, it’s also about spending quality time with my husband and daughter and experiencing things through her eyes.
