Managing construction projects across multiple sites, contractors, and reporting lines is complex. I help construction companies, developers, and donor-funded organisations stay in control of that complexity, from baseline to closeout, without the overhead of a full-time hire. I am a PMP-certified Construction Project Manager with over nine years of experience delivering complex infrastructure programmes across East and Sub-Saharan Africa. I have managed multi-site portfolios worth up to USD 40M, led PMO setups from scratch across five countries, and produced board-level reporting for institutional clients including the Global Fund and the Ministry of Health. What I bring to your project: โœ” PMO Setup and Governance Frameworks built from scratch โœ” Construction Schedule Development and Recovery Planning (MS Project, Smartsheet, Primavera P6) โœ” Budget Monitoring, Cost Tracking, and Variance Reporting โœ” Risk Register Development and Management โœ” Contractor and Subcontractor Performance Management โœ” RFI and Submittal Review and Tracking โœ” Earned Value Management and Progress Reporting โœ” Executive Dashboards and Donor-Facing Reports (Power BI, Smartsheet) โœ” Commissioning, Handover, and Close-Out Management โœ” Quantity Takeoff, BOQ Preparation, and Bid Support โœ” Construction Estimating and Cost Planning Recent programme highlights: 85-facility healthcare infrastructure programme across 20 counties in Kenya, USD 8M+, Global Fund financing, owner-side PM and PMO governance across five concurrent contractor packages BSL-3 laboratory refurbishment at the National Public Health Laboratories, Nairobi, coordinating specialist suppliers from Kenya, Dubai, Switzerland, Thailand, and Japan Five-country industrial CAPEX programme, USD 15M+, Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria, DRC, and Mozambique, PMO established from scratch, EVM tracking, multi-PM team management I am particularly strong in environments where governance systems do not yet exist, where multiple contractors need to be held accountable simultaneously, and where reporting needs to be clear, accurate, and decision-ready for senior audiences. If you need a construction PM who can hit the ground running, build the systems your project needs, and deliver without hand-holding, let us talk. Procore Certified Project Manager: I can manage your projects using industry-standard construction management software from day one. Whether you are already using Procore or considering implementation, I can set up project structures, coordinate RFIs and submittals, track daily logs, manage punch lists, and generate progress reports directly from the platform, giving you real-time visibility into every site without being physically present.

You're here because something isn't running the way it should. A project is late. A client is frustrated. Your team is busy but nothing is moving. You're spending more time chasing updates than actually building your business. I fix that. I come in, learn your world fast, and build the structure that makes everything else work, clear project plans, clean handoffs, no surprises for your clients, and a team that finally knows what they're doing and when. I've managed projects in construction, tech, and marketing using tools like Asana, ClickUp, Jira, and Trello. The industries might have been different, but the chaos was familiar and the results consistent. What you get when you work with me: โ†’ A project that actually ships on time โ†’ A client who feels looked after โ†’ Project workflows your team will actually follow โ†’ A week that doesn't end in a crisis โ†’ Full cycle team and client management I'm not here to manage your to-do list. I'm here to make your business feel like it's finally working the way you always meant it to. If that's what you need, I'm one message away.
