Marketing manager and team leader driving growth through corporate onboarding and calm, results-focused execution.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a marketing professional and team leader who finds satisfaction in tackling challenges and communicating practical solutions. I’m keen to work in a growth-oriented company where I can stay self-motivated, result driven, and ambitious—while keeping a positive attitude under pressure.
I’ve led marketing with a strong focus on corporate onboarding and event-driven business development, including my corporate Marketing Manager role for Lapadella Kitchen in Lavington. I also bring hands-on customer-facing leadership from prior roles, where I learned to meet deadlines calmly and deliver consistently.
In hospitality, I was contracted by Todas Hotel as a Marketing Manager and Restaurant Supervisor, balancing brand-focused marketing work with day-to-day restaurant coordination. Earlier, I held Sales and Marketing Manager and Assistant Manager roles at Joe’s Atlanta Wings Limited, strengthening my ability to drive sales and support teams through busy service periods.
Beyond commercial work, I’ve done meaningful community and policy-facing engagement focused on sexual rights and reproductive health (SRHR) as a human rights defender, plus a Public Policy Engagement internship at Twaweza East Africa. I’m also trained as a Fellow in the 3rd Cohort of the African Changemakers on Management and Planning, reinforcing how I approach leadership, analysis, negotiation, and reporting.
