Results-oriented Project Management Professional with a passion for advocacy.
What I'm looking for
As a results-oriented Project Management Professional with over 5 years of experience, I have successfully planned, executed, and monitored donor-funded programs across diverse cultural and international settings. My expertise lies in leading cross-functional teams and managing resources efficiently to deliver impactful results that align with stakeholder objectives. I am particularly passionate about human rights advocacy, focusing on gender equality and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 5), and have a proven track record of integrating gender-sensitive approaches into program design and execution.
In my current role as Programme Coordinator at the African Synodality Initiative, I have developed and managed project plans with a budget of €200,000, achieving a remarkable 99% on-time delivery and a 15% cost reduction. My experience as a Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning Officer at BoxGirls Kenya further honed my skills in creating effective MEL frameworks and enhancing data-driven decision-making. I am dedicated to fostering strong partnerships and stakeholder engagement, which has led to a 25% increase in program impact and a 10% growth in funding through optimized resource allocation.
