What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and growth opportunities.

I am a seasoned business and legal operations manager with over 8 years of international experience across diverse industries, including IT, EdTech, marketing, and entertainment. My expertise lies in building operational systems, optimizing processes, and managing cross-functional projects. I have successfully supported corporate expansions in Europe and Asia, led numerous IT implementation projects for business automation, and structured complex investment and IP deals. My focus on operational excellence and risk mitigation has driven scalable business growth.

In my current role as Partner and Head of Legal Support at Useful Services Pte. Ltd., I manage legal and accounting support for IT and business projects, coordinate document workflows, and lead client acquisition strategies. I take pride in having built a legal and accounting department from 3 to 10 people, achieving significant revenue growth and profitability. My ability to automate processes and streamline operations has resulted in substantial cost savings and improved efficiency across teams.
