What I'm looking for

I seek a senior HRIS or HR systems role where I can lead system implementations, improve payroll and data integrity, mentor teams, and work in a collaborative, process-driven environment that values accuracy and continuous improvement.

I am an HRIS specialist with over a decade of experience implementing and administering HR systems (SAP, Oracle, SuccessFactors, PeopleSoft) to improve payroll, time & attendance, and HR reporting accuracy. I have led audits, system rollouts, training sessions and cross-functional projects that reduced errors and supported timely payroll runs.

I combine strong quantitative analysis with practical procurement and vendor-management experience, having managed sourcing, negotiations and export/import coordination. I bring deep knowledge of Jamaican labor, payroll and tax laws, a track record of awards for performance, and a collaborative, results-focused approach to process improvement.
