Career Summary

I am an HR professional with a Master’s degree in Human Resource Management and over two years of experience supporting recruitment, onboarding, employee relations, and HR operations. My career began in HR administration, where I coordinated recruitment and onboarding for more than 30 employees and delivered end-to-end support across candidate shortlisting, interview scheduling, and communication.

I have managed employee queries with professionalism and confidentiality, maintained accurate and GDPR-compliant personnel records, and supported payroll documentation, leave management, and HR metrics reporting including monthly headcount updates. My work also includes contributing to employee engagement initiatives, training coordination, communication briefings, and broader HR project work in collaboration with HR Generalists and HR Business Partners.

Career Aspirations

I am particularly interested in roles that involve recruitment coordination, onboarding support, employee engagement, HR administration, or process improvement.

I thrive in environments where I can collaborate with diverse teams, take initiative, and support projects that enhance the employee or volunteer experience. Opportunities that offer exposure to HR strategy, data reporting, or talent development are especially valuable to me, as they align with my long-term goal of growing into a strategic HR role.

Ultimately, I am looking for a volunteer position where I can apply my HR knowledge, strengthen my skills, and make a positive impact on people and processes within a supportive and mission-driven organization.
