Believes we hire the whole human, not just their skills and knowledge, and so we need to invest in that whole human, not just their brains...

A CIPD Professional with strong Project Management skills and I have been working in Human Resources, Recruitment, Learning and Development for well over 20 years now. And I love it. I have worked with consultants, actuaries, project managers, managing directors and CEOs in both the corporate, creative and public service world. Equally effective both strategically as well as operationally, I pride myself on being a hybrid between a HR Professional and an Organisation Development Professional. I successfully execute the organisation’s strategy through the engagement and optimisation of its people. While the business’s needs are always at the forefront of my mind, I remain strongly empathetic to the people, thus allowing me to be that perfect conduit between both. Conscientious to my core, creative in my approach and a true believer in HR transformation to benefit the business. I work collaboratively across the business to ensure all touch points are considered. I use my humble confidence to build strong relationships and loyalty with employees at all levels. When people realise my honesty and integrity they find it easy to approach and trust me. Management always learn quickly that I am a starter finisher with good attention to detail and that my positive out going energetic personality compliments all organisational cultures. Some of the things that make me successful in my work are: I am strategic I am detailed I can inspire myself I like being inspired I know the end to end HR Process I know the end to end Project Process I'm passionate about Organisation Development I am well liked by people at all different levels I like thinking of new creative ways of doing things I can both multi-task and focus on one project I am solutions based, no matter the challenge Specialties: adobe acrobat, change management, desktop publishing, dreamweaver, file management, fireworks, goldmine, human resources, legal, management, microsoft excel, microsoft powerpoint, microsoft word, office management, personnel, policy analysis, process reengineering, project management, recruiting, reports, time management, training programs
