Admin/HR Executive and customer service professional improving onboarding, operations, and client experiences.
What I'm looking for
I’m an adaptable, service-driven Admin/HR Executive & Customer Service Professional with 5+ years of experience across construction, aviation, real estate, travel, and logistics. I’m known for improving workflow processes, enhancing communication, and delivering exceptional support to staff, clients, and management teams.
In my current role at UCALUX Construction & Contracting Limited, I keep administrative records, schedule meetings, and support smooth onboarding by creating company email accounts and digital profiles for new hires. I also coordinate interviews and recruitment follow-ups, manage monthly staff attendance trackers, prepare HR reports, and provide first-level HR support while handling internal and external correspondence with accuracy and confidentiality.
Previously, as an Administrative Assistant at JoyWorth Properties & Real Estate Development, I streamlined day-to-day documentation and improved retrieval time by 30%. I handled expense reconciliation, organized travel logistics (flight bookings and hotel reservations), generated client invoices, and strengthened client communication through proactive reminders and follow-ups.
Earlier, I built strong customer service and travel expertise through roles including Customer Service Executive at Overland Airways Limited and a Sales & Travel Specialist internship at Khari-goo Voyage. I managed ticket sales, flight reservations, passenger check-ins, client inquiries, and travel updates, and during internship I successfully closed multiple high-value tour bookings while improving client satisfaction with personalized travel solutions.
