Multiskilled HR professional with a focus on performance improvement.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Human Resource professional with a strong background in talent acquisition, employee relations, and HR administration. My experience at Nairobi Small and Companion Animal Hospital has equipped me with the skills to develop effective recruitment strategies, maintain accurate employee records, and implement comprehensive onboarding programs. I thrive in environments where I can contribute to enhancing organizational performance through effective HR practices.
Previously, I played a pivotal role in the foundational phase of Avian Court Hotel, where I supported the development of HR processes and fostered a positive startup culture. My ability to draft job descriptions, manage onboarding, and assist in policy development has sharpened my organizational and communication skills. I am passionate about creating a structured and compliant work environment that promotes employee satisfaction and development.
With a degree in Human Resource Management from Maasai Mara University, I am well-versed in aligning employee needs with organizational goals. I am committed to continuous learning and development, ensuring that I stay informed of the latest trends and regulations in HR. I look forward to contributing my skills and knowledge to an organization that values its people.
