What I'm looking for

I’m eager to apply my cross-industry experience in pharmaceuticals, financial services, and veterinary care in a new and challenging role.

At Warner Bros Discovery, I support employees and managers with queries about pay, absence, policies, benefits, and HR data. I manage requests through ServiceNow Case Management and process employee lifecycle transactions in Workday.

I also prepare employment documents, maintain compliant employee records, and help ensure HR data is accurate through audits and corrections. I support payroll activities and regional process improvement work.

At Gilead Sciences, I managed absence and termination processes across the EMEA region and kept Standard Operating Procedures aligned with organizational and regional requirements. I also contributed to a project improving knowledge-based articles for customers.

Across roles at Medivet Support Centre, Leica Camera, Morgan Stanley, and GSK, I’ve supported HR operations, Workday processes, and process documentation. At Morgan Stanley, I provided live support and coordinated training for a vendor transition; at GSK, I supported position management and recruitment processes.
