Lewis Muriuki
@lewismuriuki
Experienced management lead driving program impact, fundraising, and cross-border health initiatives.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced management lead with over 7 years directing large-scale health and community programs, securing $1.5M in project funding and expanding client portfolios by 35%. I design strategic training and mentorship programs, improving operational efficiency (up to 24%) and compliance while managing multi-donor budgets and virtual cross-border teams.
I excel in business development, stakeholder engagement, and innovation—developing digital tools that reduced inefficiencies by 21%, achieving donor retention and renewed contracts valued at over $500K. I seek to transfer these skills into a senior remote project management or business development role within an impact-driven global organization.
