PHYLLIS NJOKI
@phyllisnjoki
Proactive Executive & Personal Assistant with strong problem-solving skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a proactive and detail-oriented Executive & Personal Assistant with extensive experience in administrative coordination and stakeholder management. My background has equipped me with the skills to handle a mix of business and personal tasks with discretion, ensuring seamless communication and efficiency in executive operations.
In my most recent role at Kenya Nut, I managed complex scheduling, inbox management, and travel arrangements to enhance executive efficiency. I acted as the primary point of contact between executives, teams, and external stakeholders, drafting and coordinating professional correspondence to maintain clarity and alignment with executive needs. My ability to anticipate needs and provide proactive solutions has been key to my success in optimizing workflows and ensuring that priorities and deadlines are met.
With a Bachelor of Science in Animal Health and a Diploma in Information Technology, I have a solid educational foundation that complements my professional experience. I am committed to continuous improvement and have completed certifications in Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA) and Administrative & Executive Assistance. I am fluent in both English and Swahili, which enhances my ability to communicate effectively in diverse environments.
