School operations manager driving efficient meal programs and stakeholder engagement.
What I'm looking for
I am a proactive, detail-oriented School Operations Manager with over four years managing the Tap2Eat program for Food for Education in Nairobi. I focus on operational efficiency, SOP compliance, inventory tracking, and accurate data reporting to ensure reliable meal delivery for primary school children.
I have hands-on experience onboarding schools, coordinating with kitchen managers and school staff, and handling daily activations and admissions. I consistently produce timely daily reports, manage deliveries, and enforce food safety standards to maintain program integrity.
My work improved service metrics — serving 500+ children daily, reducing queue waiting times through streamlined tapping and tag replacement, and maintaining 100% compliance with hygiene and safety SOPs. I bring strong stakeholder engagement skills, addressing parents’ inquiries and strengthening relationships with school administrations.
I am adaptable under pressure, technically proficient with Excel and Google Sheets, and committed to community impact through improved nutrition and education outcomes.
