@ivy_kamau
Legally trained Executive VA with research, scheduling, and privacy skills. Open to remote evening roles in operations, support, and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I, Ivy Kamau, am a legally trained Executive Virtual Assistant specialising in structured communication, operational coordination and research support for executives, founders and small teams. With a background in law, I work with precision, discretion and analytical rigour, handling both confidential information and complex written material with clarity and professionalism.
Alongside my executive support work, Ivy is building expertise in data privacy and digital compliance. My interests include privacy operations, policy documentation and data governance, areas that bridge my legal training with the evolving regulatory needs of digital companies. My capacity to integrate legal literacy with operational execution makes me well positioned for compliance-adjacent roles as organisations scale.
I am currently open to remote roles that leverage my strengths in research, drafting, operations and privacy support. I am based in Nairobi and maintain consistent evening availability (UTC+3), making me a strong fit for international teams and asynchronous environments.
