TanzaniaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Human Resources and Protocol professional with hands-on experience across aviation, diplomatic events, and corporate settings in Tanzania. I led full-cycle recruitment, handled screening through reference checks, and coordinated onboarding that included employment contracts, uniforms, ID badges, airside access permits, and mandatory aviation safety/security training.
I also served as the first point of contact for HR policy, benefits, and grievances across a multinational workforce, ensuring adherence to local labour law, IATA standards, and expatriate work-permit requirements. Alongside HR, I supported PR strategies and high-profile protocol arrangements for VIP reception and diplomatic etiquette, building strong relationships with media outlets and government stakeholders.
