What I'm looking for

A structured, collaborative culture that values operational excellence, continuous improvement and growth for its staff both professionally and personally. An environment where I can contribute my experience while continuing to develop with the organisation.

I've led operations at Destiny Bridge Academy, strengthening reporting, staff accountability, enrollment, and financial management. During my tenure, fees collection grew by 15% and average staff appraisal scores rose from 3 to 4.3 out of 5.

At Nations Discipleship Enterprise, I managed budgets, tuition disbursements, reporting, and academic plans for more than 90 sponsored learners. I also built partnerships with schools, parents, and community stakeholders while supporting student mentorship and program quality.

My earlier work in communications and agency account management included campaigns for KPI, UHMG, and IRC, generating $200k through targeted radio campaigns and helping increase service uptake by 30% in Palabek and Bidi Bidi settlements.
