Office Manager and receptionist with strong communication, supervision, and personnel management expertise.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Office Manager with a B.Sc in Industrial Relation and Personnel Management, and I focus on turning day-to-day operations into clear results through structure, communication, and accountability. I enjoy working with people, setting expectations, and keeping office processes running smoothly.
At Ronke Ajide & Co, I supervised office staffs, assigned and monitored clerical and secretarial functions, and supported end-to-end talent onboarding through recruitment and selection, orientation, and training. I also evaluated office performance, coached and disciplined staff when needed, and monitored and recorded long distance phone calls to ensure accuracy and discipline.
Earlier, as a Receptionist/Secretary at Unicon Advertising Agency, I handled phone calls, distributed mails, organized work areas and information, and directed visitors efficiently. Across both roles, I bring excellence communication and inter-personal skills, strong public relation skills, and the ability to work effectively with a team.
