GhanaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a senior administrative and HR professional based in Ghana, experienced in running day-to-day operations while keeping records, people processes, and compliance on track. I bring a strong focus on accuracy, follow-through, and reliable support for teams and management.
Since 2021, I’ve worked as an Administrator at the Export-Import Bank of Korea, Accra Representative Office, handling administrative duties, banking transactions, and monthly compliance processes including Social Security and PAYE. I also manage issuance/renewal processes with institutions such as the Registrar General Department and Ghana Investment Promotion, and support foreign staff documentation including insurance, driving license renewals, and work/resident permits.
Previously, as an HR/Administrative Officer at Regimanuel Gray Estate Management Company, I supported HR operations including recruitment coordination, employee record keeping, payroll attendance preparation, and orientation for new staff. I’ve also built strong fundamentals through earlier roles as an Administrative Assistant and Secretary, including minutes taking, report writing, budgeting support, event organization, and project monitoring for district planning work.
