What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging role in a safety-oriented organization that values teamwork and growth.

I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in safety management and loss prevention. With a Postgraduate Diploma in Occupational Health, Safety and Environmental Management from the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration, I have honed my skills in ensuring workplace safety and compliance. My experience as a Loss Control Manager at Game Discount World Ghana Limited involved collaborating with law enforcement and conducting thorough investigations to mitigate risks and prevent financial losses.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated proven leadership abilities, motivating teams to achieve organizational goals while maintaining a strong focus on safety and efficiency. My roles have included acting as a Port Manager and overseeing operations at Federated Commodities Ltd, where I ensured compliance with documentation and safety protocols. I am passionate about creating a safety-oriented culture within organizations and am always eager to learn and grow in my field.
