Taryn Du Plooy
@tarynduplooy
Detail-oriented administrative coordinator with 10+ years of experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and dependable operations and administration professional with over 10 years of experience in supporting business operations, procurement, logistics, finance, and inventory control, particularly within the aviation industry. My career has been marked by a commitment to precision and efficiency, which has allowed me to streamline processes and enhance internal workflows. I am currently seeking dynamic remote opportunities where my coordination skills and customer-centric approach can truly shine, all while balancing my new role as a capable mom.
Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my ability to manage multiple tasks calmly and effectively. At Flyonics, I implemented new inventory systems that significantly improved accuracy and tracking, while at African Alliance Airparts, I played a key role in launching a new aviation parts supply business. My experience includes managing stock levels, procurement cycles, and providing high-accuracy logistics and customer support. I pride myself on my strong communication skills and my ability to build lasting relationships with suppliers and customers alike.
