NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m an Admin Executive/Procurement Manager with long-term experience driving day-to-day administration, pastoral care support, and procurement to help organizations run smoothly. I provide secretarial and administrative support such as taking minutes, drafting and distributing documents, maintaining filing systems, and acting as the information center between the organization and clients.
In my procurement work, I plan, track, and forecast expenditure, maintain inventory of office supplies, and keep databases updated for program interventions. I evaluate contractors on responsiveness, pricing, and delivery dates, decide procurement methods and terms, review requisitions for accuracy and compliance, select vendors, and brief them on compliance—while also coordinating weddings and managing vendor relationships. Earlier roles included Head of Administration and Administrative Secretary, where I managed office administration, trained and supervised junior staff, arranged events, reviewed invoices, monitored project implementation, and supported leadership with scheduling and travel.
