What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply payroll and records expertise, improve systems (HR/payroll), support staff, and continue professional development in a collaborative, quality-focused environment.

I am a quality-driven Payroll Officer and records professional with extensive experience supporting over 100 local and overseas staff. I have successfully processed fortnightly and monthly payrolls, prepared statutory correspondence, and launched the My HR+ system at a government ministry to streamline payroll operations.

I previously managed records, databases, attendance and benefits calculations, and helped create a records information management system adopted organization-wide. My background includes data entry, analysis, and supporting training needs through targeted reporting and surveys.

I believe in lifelong learning, bring strong teamwork and independent work skills, and prioritize accuracy, documentation, and employee support to improve HR and payroll processes.
