I’m a content and corporate communications professional with brand and HR experience.
What I'm looking for
I’m a communications and content professional with experience spanning corporate communications, branding, human resource management, and administration. I bring strong communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills that help me engage effectively with diverse audiences and stakeholders.
Having traveled extensively within Bangladesh and internationally, I’ve developed cross-cultural awareness, adaptability, and an ability to communicate with people from diverse backgrounds. This keeps my writing and documentation grounded in clarity and audience needs.
After a career break to fulfill family responsibilities, I returned to professional work with a renewed focus on content writing, editing, documentation, and business communication. I’m motivated by work that values crisp messaging, well-organized documentation, and thoughtful coordination across teams.
In earlier roles, I led both people and brand-facing responsibilities: as a Consultant—HR & Administration at South African Bottling Company (SABCO), I managed administrative workflows and HR functions to support operational efficiency and compliance. I also served as a Manager—Human Resources at Seven Ring Cement and a Manager—Brand Management, while my previous experience included Senior Merchandiser work at Bata focused on inventory systems, sales performance, supply chain efficiency, stores visits, and market research.
