What I'm looking for

I seek a role offering administrative responsibilities, accurate documentation or court reporting, and opportunities to apply my bookkeeping and IT skills within a collaborative, service-oriented organization.

I am an experienced administrative professional with a Diploma in Office Management and Administration and proven roles across Seychelles public institutions, including court reporting, project secretarial work, and executive assistance. I bring strong stenography and office systems skills developed through roles at the Department of Judiciary, Ministry of Land Use and Housing, Seychelles Fishing Authority, and other government offices.

I have a record of reliable, detail-oriented support—from court reporting and documentation to personal assistance for directors—and I am eager to contribute my organizational, bookkeeping, and IT skills to a team-focused organization that values accuracy and consistent performance.
