What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, values collaboration, and emphasizes strategic HR initiatives.

I am an accomplished HR and business professional with over five years of diverse experience in Human Resources, Finance, Business Development, and International Affairs. My journey has taken me through both local and multinational organizations, including WeCare Education, Akij Bakers Ltd, Bproperty, and Nestlé Bangladesh Limited. I am passionate about bridging talent gaps and fostering organizational excellence, leveraging my expertise in HR strategy, recruitment, employee engagement, training, and public relations.

Currently, I serve as an HR & International Business Consultant at WeCare Education, where I spearhead international student recruitment across various countries and develop strategic partnerships with universities. My previous roles have equipped me with skills in full-cycle recruitment, HR policy formulation, and performance management, all aimed at driving business success through a collaborative and innovative approach.
