About Candidate

Hello,

I am from Meru town eagerly looking for a job. I have over 5 years work experience in the microfinance/fintech industry both as a branch manager and loans officer serving in various towns within the Mt. kenya region. I am self-driven, enthusiastic, passionate about what I do and most of all can work under minimal supervision. I have always had an upward track record; posting better results than previous months, and I can well balance between my KPIs i.e maintain a steady loan growth while managing arrears and NPLs. I have a fantastic customer relation attitude that helps me maintain clients at a retention rate of above 94%.

Above all, my staff retention rate, for when I have been branch manager, has always been 100% since I strongly believe in problem solving and team work.

Kindly do consider my application and feel free to follow up even with an interview if and when need be.

thank you so much and God bless.

 

Kind regards……….
