Mufaro Mtare
@mufaromtare
Administrative assistant and field-based development professional supporting NGOs with reporting, coordination, and program implementation for 6+ years.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven development and administrative professional with 6+ years supporting executive leadership, program implementation, and donor-funded initiatives. I combine grant proposal support, technical and narrative reporting, and field data analysis to turn evidence into actionable insights.
In my recent role as an Administrative Assistant, I serve as a first point of contact for clients, partners, and visitors—handling calls, correspondence, diary management, meeting coordination, and visitor logs. I also manage confidential records, coordinate travel and tender site visit logistics, and liaise with internal teams and external stakeholders to keep projects moving smoothly.
Previously, as a Field Officer and Enumerator, I supervised field teams, ensured accurate data collection, and contributed field-level evidence to grant proposal development and logical frameworks. I’ve prepared midline and endline reports, supported policy review (including SADC regional frameworks), and facilitated stakeholder consultations and validation workshops to inform program decision-making.
