What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a dynamic role where I can contribute to strategic HR initiatives, support talent development, and help shape a strong organizational culture. I thrive in environments that value innovation, autonomy, and impact, especially within remote or global teams.

Versatile and results-oriented Human Resource and Administrative Specialist with over 15 years of experience in NGOs, corporate institutions, SACCOs, consulting, military, and faith-based organizations. Currently a Ph.D. candidate in Strategic Management, with strong knowledge in HR policy design, workforce planning, performance management, compliance, talent development, and organizational capacity building.

I have a proven record of achieving measurable improvements in HR operations. I have enhanced employee relations and strengthened institutional governance. For over 11 years at KUSCCO Ltd, I oversaw all HR operations, creating HR manuals, job evaluation frameworks, and HRMIS systems. These efforts improved workflow efficiency by 25% and boosted compliance.

As a consultant and career coach, I have guided more than 250 professionals and many institutions through HR transformation, leadership training, and improving operational efficiency. I conducted market research, salary surveys, and policy reviews for over 30 SACCOs and institutions, producing actionable reports and recommendations.

I have experience in administrative coordination, facilities management, and safety oversight. I achieved zero audit issues and cut security incidents by 30%. I am committed to professionalism, integrity, strategic thinking, and ensuring HR systems support organizational goals for lasting impact.

Open to collaborations, consulting, mentorship, and speaking opportunities.
