Favour Okhiria

My name is Favour Okhiria, and I am an organized, proactive, and impact-driven professional with experience across operations management, project coordination, product leadership, and community engagement. I thrive in environments where structure, communication, and problem-solving meet, and I excel at managing multiple priorities while delivering clear, measurable results.

My background spans several industries such as operations, waste management, academic research, community management, and service delivery, giving me a diverse skill set that I now apply to remote roles.

Currently, I serve as the Operations Manager for the Lagos State Waste Management Authority (LAWMA) during my NYSC, where I coordinate daily waste collection operations, supervise field teams, maintain route efficiency, and manage both client and internal communications. This role strengthened my ability to manage people, operations, compliance, and data tracking in real time especially in fast-paced, high-demand environments.

I also act as the Co-CEO of Lagos Errandboy, where I co-lead brand strategy, manage day-to-day logistics, coordinate deliveries, and handle client acquisition. I have successfully built partnerships, improved customer satisfaction, and grew our social media following by 80% through strategic content and consistent engagement. This role has reinforced my leadership, digital communication, and project coordination skills.

In addition, I lead academic writing and research projects at THE PEN, where I manage freelance writers, oversee entire research processes, and ensure high-quality delivery for postgraduate clients. I developed structured writing systems that improved turnaround time and client satisfaction, demonstrating my ability to manage complex, detail-oriented tasks.

I also work remotely as a Project Manager for community events and partnerships in Wales, UK. In this role, I plan webinars, manage event timelines, handle speaker outreach, coordinate promotional assets, conduct grant research, and track community engagement across WhatsApp and LinkedIn. Through my systems and engagement strategies, community participation increased by 70%.

Academically, I hold a B.Sc. in Environmental Management and Toxicology from the University of Benin, supported by certifications in GDPR, Agile and Project Management, Remote Work Best Practices, Canva, and leadership.

Across all my roles, I bring strong communication, critical thinking, leadership, and organizational skills combined with proficiency in Google Workspace, Canva, CapCut, research writing, and project management tools.

I am now seeking a remote opportunity where I can contribute my strengths in operations, project coordination, community management, and team support while continuing to grow within a forward-thinking organization.
