What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, inclusivity, and strategic HR initiatives.

I am an Agile HR Professional with over 10 years of experience in human resources, including 3 years in HR management roles across various industries. My career has been dedicated to effectively communicating and embracing new challenges to develop projects and implement practical initiatives that meet HR needs. I have successfully built and executed HR strategies, processes, and organizational alignment within different companies, ensuring that the workforce is equipped to meet both short and long-term business goals.

At Omnia Europe S.A., I created a comprehensive HR organization that included recruitment, staffing, onboarding, and training for both expatriates and local hires. I played a pivotal role in developing the HR strategy for a new plant, aligning compensation programs, and implementing performance and talent management initiatives that fostered a productive and equitable work environment. My leadership during a period of rapid growth resulted in significant increases in revenue and profitability, demonstrating my ability to drive organizational success through effective HR practices.

In my recent role at Deel Inc., I provided HR and Payroll consultancy, aligning local processes with global operations and enhancing compliance. My experience spans various sectors, including food, SaaS, retail, and education, where I have consistently improved HR operations, employee retention, and compliance with labor laws. I am passionate about creating inclusive workplaces and continuously seek opportunities to enhance HR functions through innovative solutions.
