Nimrod Williams
@nimrodwilliams
Experienced operations manager with a focus on logistics and HR.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned professional with over 10 years of experience in Human Resources, Administration, and Operations Management across various sectors, including Banking, Telecommunication, and NGOs. Holding two Master's degrees in Procurement & Supply Chain Management and Human Resources Management, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of HR and administrative procedures, labor laws, and operational strategies. My diverse experience across East Africa has equipped me with the skills to lead teams effectively and drive organizational growth.
In my recent role as Head of Operations at BRAC International in Liberia, I successfully developed operational tools and policies that enhanced efficiency and streamlined procurement processes. My previous positions have included Country Logistics Manager at Secours Islamique France in Nigeria and Head of Logistics at Cooperazione Internazionale in Sudan, where I managed logistics, security, and administrative functions. I am passionate about fostering a collaborative work environment and empowering individuals to reach their full potential, which I believe is key to achieving superior team performance and organizational success.
