What I'm looking for

I seek HR or policy roles in mission-driven organisations where I can lead workforce strategy, strengthen compliance, and build capacity through training and stakeholder collaboration.

I am a Human Resource Manager with over nine years' experience in HR management, policy governance, stakeholder engagement, and workforce programmes within highly regulated public health environments. I have led recruitment and onboarding, strengthened HR operations and records, delivered targeted training programs, and partnered with senior leaders to align people initiatives with organisational goals.

In my current regulatory and policy roles I design and deliver specialised training, coordinate multi-stakeholder policy regulation activities, oversee research facilitation and trend analysis, and contribute to evidence-based standards for traditional and alternative medicine. I bring proven capacity-building experience, strong compliance and records-management skills, and a track record of improving workforce planning and employee engagement.
