What I'm looking for

I seek a virtual assistant or HR/administrative role where I can apply HR management, recruitment, and operations skills in a collaborative culture that values efficiency and professional growth.

I am a dedicated virtual assistant and HR professional with over five years of experience supporting administrative and HR functions across public and private sectors. I deliver organized, timely support that keeps teams productive and operations running smoothly.

As Senior Administrative Officer (HR) I oversaw HR operations, managed end-to-end recruitment and onboarding, developed HR strategies aligned to organizational goals, and maintained HR databases and reports. I have led teams as a staff supervisor in Bahrain and managed business development and client relationships in a corporate setting.

I hold an M.Sc. in Peace Studies & Conflict Resolution and a B.Sc. in Sociology, and I’m certified in Google Cybersecurity, Travel Management, and Virtual Assistance. I am adaptable, customer-focused, and committed to using HR and administrative expertise to drive measurable improvements.
