What I'm looking for

I’m seeking to apply my expertise in public health strategy and clinical leadership to a Senior Programme Manager role—focused on large-scale intervention design and health systems strengthening, with data-driven, trauma-informed care and measurable performance.

I’m a Registered Clinical Officer with 20+ years of specialised expertise in public health and clinical management within high-impact NGO environments across East Africa. I’ve mastered the design and implementation of integrated HIV/AIDS, TB, PMTCT and Key Populations (KP) programming, guided by a philosophy centred on data-driven clinical excellence and trauma-informed care.

I deliver strong results—98% reporting accuracy and 95%+ linkage-to-care—by optimising referral systems and community outreach models. In my recent roles, I’ve managed high-volume clinical operations, reduced average wait times by 20%, supported cross-border PrEP and ART adherence to national and regional clinical protocols, and improved facility service uptake by 15% within nine months.

I also bring senior programme leadership through Continuous Quality Improvement and strong health systems strengthening. I’ve directed HIV prevention and GBV programming for Key Populations, maintained 100% viral suppression among PMTCT participants, reduced data entry errors by 30%, and mentored a team of 15 clinical and support staff—while evaluating clinical data trends using DHIS2 and reporting tools to continuously improve outcomes. I’m seeking to apply this expertise in public health strategy and clinical leadership to a Senior Programme Manager role.
