What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role where I can lead engineering projects, improve operational efficiency, mentor teams, and grow technically within a safety-conscious, collaborative organization.

I am a Marine Engineer with a B.Tech from Rivers State University and hands-on experience across marine operations, project management, and business development. I combine technical troubleshooting with project oversight to keep vessels and projects running safely and efficiently.

At PPI & KOG Nigeria Limited I manage engineering projects end-to-end, overseeing onboarding, compliance, QA/QC, invoicing in QuickBooks, and personnel certification scheduling. I pursue timely invoice resolution and coordinate demobilization and equipment reconciliation.

Previously I supported ship operations and machinery maintenance at the Nigerian Institute for Oceanography and Marine Research, conducted engine overhauls as an engineering intern, and drove client development and tender submissions in business development roles. I also managed social media campaigns that boosted engagement for events and businesses.

I bring strong administrative, organizational, and customer-service skills, with proficiency in MS Office, Google Workspace, QuickBooks, and social media platforms. I seek to apply my technical skills and project management experience to contribute measurable improvements in engineering operations.
