What I'm looking for

I seek a role providing executive/HR administrative support in a professional, collaborative environment where I can streamline processes, manage confidential tasks, and contribute to compliance and operational excellence.

I am an administrative professional with 18 years' experience providing high-level executive and HR support across IT, security, and legal sectors, known for meticulous recordkeeping, confidentiality, and efficient office management. I have led onboarding/offboarding, payroll coordination support, employment equity administration, WSP/SETA reporting, tender assistance, and complex calendar and event management.

My achievements include implementing centralized document management (DocuSign/SharePoint), coordinating SAP and Microsoft Partner Center training and reporting, streamlining HR processes, and acting as a trusted liaison with banks, vendors and internal stakeholders to ensure compliance and timely delivery. I bring a proactive, discreet approach and a strong commitment to improving operational efficiency.
