What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead payroll/HR operations, ensure compliance, improve systems, and mentor teams in a collaborative, growth-focused company.

I am a resourceful, organized and results-driven HR professional with over 12 years of experience in fast-paced environments, combining HR, payroll, and office management expertise.

I have led payroll teams, implemented payroll systems (VIP, Xero, MYOB, Sage Pastel) and ensured legislative and awards compliance through regular audits and reconciliations.

I excel at HR administration, disciplinary processes, recruitment, employee-file management, and client and employee relations, with experience representing employers at hearings and implementing policies for smoother operations.

I bring strong analytical, interpersonal and communication skills, a practical hands-on leadership style, and a consistent record of improving payroll processes, delivering accurate reporting, and supporting business needs.
