What I'm looking for

I am seeking a challenging role that leverages my skills and passion for community development.

I am a highly motivated Bachelor of Arts - Community Development graduate with a proven track record of success in various professional settings. My experience as a Compliance Officer at Nairobi Metropolitan Services has equipped me with the skills to manage complex compliance requirements and ensure adherence to applicable laws and regulations. I have developed and implemented comprehensive compliance programs, investigated breaches, and created awareness of service charters, all while building strong relationships with stakeholders.

Prior to my current role, I served as a Sales Associate at Copia Kenya, where I successfully recruited and trained agents, contributing to significant revenue growth. My diverse background also includes experience as a Virtual Assistant and Lecturer, where I earned my communication and organizational skills. I am dedicated to making a positive impact through my work and am committed to ongoing professional development in community development, virtual assistant, customer service and data analyst.
