What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters innovation and offers growth opportunities in supply chain management.

Currently, I serve as the Manager of Supply Chain at Kenya Electricity Transmission Company Limited, where I lead the development and implementation of procurement strategies that enhance operational efficiency and compliance with local laws. My role involves providing technical support to various departments, overseeing supplier engagement, and ensuring the effective management of procurement processes.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed significant projects including the 400kV Mombasa – Nairobi Transmission Line and the Kenya – Uganda Electricity Interconnector.
