Housekeeping Manager

ABOUT THE COMPANY Oasis Healthcare Group Limited was conceptualized out of the need to harmonize the various companies and facilities existing across the country under the Oasis umbrella that have been in existence since 2010. In the wisdom of the founder members of all these outfits, there was need to synchronize the strategic direction, standard operating procedures, business processes, expansion programmes, style, systems and shared values among others. This was compounded by the need to have a centralized control or ‘command’ and harness on opportunities in the local as well as global arena through product differentiation and diversification together with capital sourcing. The Company is envisioned to a suitable regional ‘hub’ model.
