What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative environment.

I am a bright and dedicated individual with a strong background in recruitment and sales across various sectors, including finance, legal, and marketing. My journey has equipped me with the skills to connect with clients and candidates effectively, utilizing platforms like LinkedIn and RecruiterFlow. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can contribute to team success while honing my sales skills.

Throughout my career, I have taken on multiple roles, from a Marketing Executive/Recruiter in Mental Health and Construction to a Communication Specialist in sales and marketing. My ability to adapt and learn quickly has allowed me to excel in each position, whether it’s creating engaging content for social media or conducting outreach through personalized videos. I am passionate about helping others find their ideal roles and ensuring that clients receive the best candidates for their needs.
