## About

```text
At Ivy Partners, I manage end-to-end recruitment for national and international projects, with a focus on the Portuguese and Swiss markets. I source and assess technology professionals and support hiring through placement and onboarding.

At IT People Innovation, I helped launch the RPO service and managed talent acquisition alongside the team. I also provided technical training to management and the recruitment team, and supported new-client relationships.

I moved into IT recruitment in 2022 after more than seven years in hospitality. My earlier work included group sales at Corinthia Hotel Lisbon and Hotel Tivoli Oriente, where I prepared proposals, supported clients, and coordinated with hotel teams.
