What I'm looking for

I want to excel as a Deputy Manager in an NGO, using my experience in end-to-end project management, stakeholder engagement, and operations to drive positive change—delivering projects on time, within budget, and to quality standards.

I’m a Deputy Manager focused on end-to-end project management for an NGO—planning, organizing, monitoring, and ensuring delivery on time, within budget, and to quality standards. I also support senior managers with key decisions on procedures and operations.

In my current role, I coordinate across finance, accounting, human resources, and marketing to keep program implementation smooth. I collaborate with stakeholders to gather requirements and understand business needs, while planning budgets and tracking expenditures to maintain cost-effectiveness and financial compliance.

Before becoming a Deputy Manager, I served as a DDI Coordinator and earlier as an IT Trainer & Project Coordinator, training students and supporting program activity planning and coordination. I’ve built strong relationships with teams and management, prepared regular progress reports, and organized meetings and events to keep projects moving with the right resources and logistics.
