What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can manage administration, reporting, and operational coordination end-to-end—leveraging my finance/banking background and digital tools—while contributing to a results-driven team and continuing to grow.

I’m a versatile Virtual Assistant and Administrative Assistant with over 5 years of combined experience across financial and administrative management, banking operations, social media management, and business development. I’m known for precision, strong organizational skills, effective communication, and managing multiple tasks simultaneously, remotely or on-site.

In my Social Media Manager role, I created and scheduled engaging content for Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, moderated community interactions, and analyzed performance metrics to produce regular reports. I also coordinated with marketing to align posts with brand objectives and monitored competitors to spot industry trends.

In banking and finance, I processed and tracked national and international operations (transfers, RTGS, wire transfers), managed client files and tax obligations, and supervised interns on operational procedures. As Administrative & Financial Director, I handled donor-funded project financial and budget management, implemented internal control and risk management systems, and supported reporting, document management, and team coordination.
