What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can manage office operations and payroll, contribute to efficient processes, and work in a collaborative, professional team that values accuracy and growth.

I am an organized administrator and receptionist with hands-on experience in front-of-house operations, payroll processing for large contractor groups, and comprehensive office management. I have processed monthly payrolls, maintained staff databases, handled switchboard and client communications, and managed invoicing and stock counts while supporting directors with travel and administrative needs.

I bring strong Microsoft Office, Pastel, and PaySpace proficiency, a detail-oriented approach to record keeping and data validation, and a collaborative, customer-focused demeanor that improves office efficiency and workplace atmosphere.
