Sri LankaWhat I'm looking for
I am an energetic and dedicated professional with a strong background in administration and career guidance. With a BA(Hons) in Leadership and Management from Northumbria University, I have developed analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities that I apply in my work. My experience spans various roles, including Executive Administration at Torro Forms, where I enhanced customer portfolios and ensured timely order deliveries.
Previously, I served as a Career Guidance Counselor at HITEC College, where I reviewed students' backgrounds to inform their job-related choices and advised them on skill improvement strategies. My role as a Programme Coordinator further honed my organizational skills, as I was responsible for coordinating academic programs and liaising with marketing teams to promote them effectively. I pride myself on my excellent interpersonal communication skills, which have been essential in all my roles.
