What I'm looking for

I secured JCIA quality accreditation by aligning HR policies, staff credentials, and training logs with accreditation standards. I also resolve grievances and disciplinary cases and negotiated and implemented a Collective Bargaining Agreement with union representatives.
At The Mater Misericordiae Hospital, I streamlined staff communications with a digital broadcast channel across 15 hospital units. I also supported compliant recruitment workflows, remote employee record audits, and an updated Collective Bargaining Agreement.
At Marie Stopes Kenya, I led the deployment of a cloud-based HRMIS across 22 field centres and coordinated recruitment campaigns that filled 140 positions. Earlier, at The Nairobi Hospital, I executed recruitment campaigns to hire and onboard 250 personnel and maintained audit-ready files and contracts for 1,200+ staff members.
