Winnie Tanui

I am a highly organized and proactive Executive Assistant with over six years of experience supporting C-suite executives, high-profile individuals, and HR departments across both corporate and virtual environments. With a solid foundation in administrative coordination, internal communication, and content support, I bring a unique blend of professionalism, tech-savviness, and creative flair to every team I join.

My journey in people support began in traditional executive assistant roles, where I was responsible for managing complex calendars, coordinating travel, and acting as a liaison between executives and internal teams. Over time, my responsibilities expanded to include HR-related functions such as interview scheduling, onboarding logistics, and maintaining confidential personnel records. This seamless transition into HR coordination and support has allowed me to contribute meaningfully to people operations and employee experience initiatives.

As a freelance Virtual Assistant, I’ve worked with growing teams and entrepreneurs to streamline workflows, manage documentation, and organize recruitment pipelines. I’ve also supported branding and communication tasks such as creating onboarding kits, formatting internal memos, and helping organize employee engagement campaigns. My ability to adapt quickly to new tools—like Trello, Canva, Notion, and Google Workspace—has enabled me to deliver efficiently in remote and collaborative settings.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, which has strengthened my comfort with digital tools and systems. Whether supporting virtual events, coordinating job ads across platforms, or assisting in employer branding campaigns, I bring an eye for detail, strong writing skills, and a genuine interest in creating organized, human-centered experiences.

I take pride in being dependable, adaptable, and discreet—traits that have earned me trust in sensitive environments. I’m also passionate about professional growth and working with teams that value communication, inclusion, and innovation.

Currently based in Kenya (EAT timezone), I am well-aligned with APAC time zones and fully equipped for remote collaboration. I’m excited about the opportunity to bring my administrative expertise and enthusiasm for HR and internal communications to a forward-thinking, people-first team.
