What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic HR role that fosters growth and values employee engagement.

I am a results-driven professional with a BCom degree in Industrial Psychology, currently specializing in end-to-end recruitment and HR administrative functions in both the UK and South Africa. My expertise lies in aligning talent acquisition strategies with organizational goals, ensuring efficient onboarding processes, and enhancing employee experiences.

In my current role as an HR Assistant at Babble Cloud, I have been recognized as Employee of the Month twice among 550 employees. I manage the entire recruitment process, from job analysis and candidate sourcing to conducting interviews and onboarding new hires. My commitment to optimizing workflows and supporting HR operations has significantly contributed to the success of our team.

With a strong foundation in HR practices and a passion for fostering a positive workplace culture, I am dedicated to driving business success through effective talent management and employee engagement initiatives.
