@rosemwangi2
I build scalable operations, grow commercial portfolios, and improve service performance across complex projects.
What I'm looking for
At OTIS South Africa, I lead Nairobi-based operations, increasing localised annual turnover beyond KES 43M and reducing service downtime by 51% through improved emergency-response workflows and transit agreements.
I've managed complex construction, real estate, and commercial portfolios at RMM Builds, Samani Construction, and KRK & Associates, including a KES 5.5 billion international academy development. My work spans operational transformation, budget control, contract administration, procurement, risk governance, and project delivery.
I'm a PMP and registered quantity surveyor who turns decentralised workflows into structured, scalable systems. I bring experience leading teams, optimising costs, strengthening compliance, and building the operational foundations for sustainable growth.
