@olalekanarowolo
Detail-oriented operations and inventory leader with a microbiology background, driving productivity across retail and healthcare.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly motivated, detail-oriented professional with a Bachelors degree in Microbiology and a strong reputation for communication, time management, and organization. I bring proven experience managing teams and day-to-day operations across retail, healthcare, and real estate, with a consistent focus on measurable results.
As Head of Staff at BUCOM Pharmacy and Supermarket, I planned and managed administrative and operational activities within the business. I trained new staff in computer software use, cashier operations, and customer service roles, and I provided strategic recommendations to enhance teamwork and productivity.
In remote roles, I’ve strengthened how inventory supports sales and accuracy. As an Inventory Manager at SOZO Outlet, I conducted competitor and product research to optimize inventory strategies and managed product listings to improve visibility and sales. I’m also comfortable collaborating with leadership to prioritize and implement business strategies.
Earlier, as an Estate Manager, I handled land parcel allocation, supervised land clearing, ensured accurate plot measurements by surveyors, and oversaw road and infrastructure construction—then compiled technical reports for management. Through the Canada Project (remote), I also supported store building by creating products that match inventory, performing image editing, and handling price fixing, backed by strong IT, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
