What I'm looking for

I seek a mission-driven organisation where I can apply medical billing, operations, and facilities expertise to improve processes, ensure data integrity, and drive measurable efficiency gains.

I am a dynamic administration and medical billing professional with over 11 years of experience in administration, data management, and process improvement across healthcare operations.

In my current role as Deputy Head of the Medical Billing Department, I manage end-to-end billing processes, compile and analyse billing data for HMOs, NHIS and private organisations, and reduced billing errors by implementing quality control measures while onboarding and training 16+ employees.

Earlier, I supervised construction of multi-storey healthcare facilities, managed block manufacturing operations that supplied over 50,000 moulded blocks, led procurement and resource allocation, and served as Facilities Manager across multiple sites.

I hold ISO 9001:2015 QMS certification and multiple Google project management certificates, and I am eager to bring my leadership, operational discipline, and continuous-learning mindset to a mission-driven organisation focused on efficiency and excellence.
