What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead end-to-end HR management—recruitment, performance appraisal, HRIS data, payroll coordination, and employee relations—while strengthening compliance, structured HR systems, and staff capacity in a dynamic environment.

I am a highly experienced Human Resource professional with 15+ years of progressive experience in HR management across higher education, healthcare, consultancy, and NGO sectors. I manage end-to-end HR functions—HR operations & administration, recruitment & selection, employee relations, and performance management systems—while ensuring accurate personnel records and strong compliance with HR policies.

In my current role as a Human Resource Manager at Musana Community Development Organization, I oversee HR operations, payroll management, staff management, and compliance, and I coordinate staff welfare and disciplinary processes. Previously, as a Human Resource Manager at Naggalama Hospital and across Busoga University roles, I maintained HRIS and payroll harmonization, implemented performance appraisal systems, supported training needs and staff development programs, and prepared HR budgets, workplans, and reports—always with a focus on structured HR systems, HR reporting frameworks, and effective workforce administration.
