What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters growth, values teamwork, and allows me to enhance HR processes.

I am a results-driven HR and Administrative Support professional with over four years of experience in enhancing HR operations and supporting senior executives. My journey has equipped me with a proven track record in calendar management, full cycle recruitment, onboarding, and employee engagement. I pride myself on my ability to maintain confidentiality while streamlining operations and fostering a positive team culture.

In my current role as an HR Assistant and Talent Acquisition Officer at Jiji Kenya, I provide comprehensive administrative support to the Head of HR. I have successfully reduced time-to-hire by 25% through improved coordination and have initiated monthly HR-led wellness activities that significantly increased team engagement. My previous experiences have further honed my skills in vendor management, travel coordination, and compliance tracking, making me a versatile asset in any HR environment.
