What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an operations-focused role where I can own procurement, compliance, and budget tracking, streamline workflows, and coordinate stakeholders to deliver measurable operational results—paired with a team that values structure, accountability, and continuous improvement.

I’m an Operations and Administration professional with 3+ years of progressive experience across finance, technology, and development sectors. I bring a proven record in procurement lifecycle management, regulatory compliance, stakeholder coordination, and cross-functional team leadership, backed by an MBA with strong foundations in financial management and process improvement.

In my current role as an Operations Manager, I lead end-to-end daily operations for training programs and events—scheduling, logistics, and resource allocation—while managing the full procurement lifecycle from vendor selection and purchase orders to inventory control and vendor payments. I also oversee petty cash reconciliation and operational budgets, and ensure health, fire, life, and safety compliance so staff and students work in a safe environment.

Previously, as an Admin and Operations Officer at NAXA, I enforced company-wide policies aligned with Nepali laws and donor requirements, managed multi-million rupee project budgets across 10+ concurrent projects, and led procurement through vendor due diligence and contract negotiation. Earlier, I supported business development and operations in a digital context and handled precise cash transactions and dual-control compliance in banking—experiences that sharpened my attention to detail and my ability to drive operational efficiency through workflow streamlining and technology-driven process improvements.
