Experienced environmental manager with expertise in data annotation and agile project management.
What I'm looking for
As an environmental professional with over 16 years of experience, I have developed a strong background in managing cross-functional teams and workflows, particularly in the realms of environmental management and data annotation. My expertise includes leading projects that ensure compliance with environmental standards, conducting thorough data quality checks, and implementing process improvements to enhance efficiency.
In my current role at NESREA, I have been instrumental in addressing soot pollution in Port Harcourt, shutting down non-compliant facilities, and conducting investigations into environmental incidents. My work has also involved extensive community engagement, including public lectures and awareness programs on environmental sustainability.
Earlier in my career, I contributed to various environmental projects such as air and noise pollution monitoring, waste management initiatives, and environmental risk assessments. My ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously, coupled with my strong organizational and communication skills, has been key to delivering results in diverse and challenging environments.
