What I'm looking for

I seek a role in a supportive environment that fosters growth and learning.

I am a results-driven and dynamic Procurement and Contract Management Graduate with a strong foundation in procurement processes and contract management. My academic journey at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology has equipped me with exceptional knowledge and skills that I have applied during my industrial training at the Kenya Rural Roads Authority. I have consistently been recognized for my ability to deliver impeccable procurement services, ensuring a positive customer experience and a collaborative work environment.

Throughout my experience, I have developed comprehensive skills in warehouse management, public procurement, procurement law, and material handling. My role involved leveraging IT skills for data automation, conducting market surveys, and maintaining effective documentation. I am a resourceful and flexible team player, eager to learn and contribute to a well-established institution as an intern or graduate trainee, ready to embrace entry-level opportunities in procurement and contract management.
