I streamline office operations, HR support, travel logistics, and administrative costs.
What I'm looking for
At Sun King Malawi, I oversee daily office operations, vendor relationships, travel logistics, recruitment support, and employee onboarding. I reduced administrative costs by 50% and shortened onboarding and file-upload turnaround from 15 days to 8 days.
Previously at Continental Trading, I supported HR policy development, recruitment, procurement, facility management, budgets, reporting, and executive logistics. I also supervised office support staff and maintained vendor, asset, archive, and employee records.
I bring experience in sales, customer service, data management, reporting, event coordination, and training support from Times Group Beyond Media and Mphiripili Consulting Group.
I'm an ALX-certified Virtual Assistant with an MBA and a practical focus on creating organized, efficient workplaces that support employees and business operations.
