Seasoned office administrator with 22 years' experience optimizing operations, documentation, and team support.
What I'm looking for
I'm a detail-focused, proactive office administrator with 22 years' experience across admin, document control, data entry, scheduling, reporting and client communication. I take ownership of tasks, step in where needed, and consistently deliver accurate, deadline-driven work that keeps operations running smoothly.
Throughout roles at KFD Wilkinson, Rotolabel, Performance Brands and others, I've managed invoicing, reconciliations, digital filing systems, tender documents, travel arrangements and internal communications, and supported finance with monthly records and purchase ordering. I'm tech-savvy with Microsoft Office, Google Drive and virtual collaboration tools, and I'm seeking a role—ideally remote—where I can apply my organizational strengths and proactive problem-solving to support a team effectively.
