I am a creative organiser of complex talent projects, able to collaborate and work independently to produce results and meet deadlines. I have 15 years' professional experience partnering with senior stakeholders to achieve staffing best practice. My skills include end-to-end in house recruitment, talent and resource management, talent pipelining, networking, social media, training, development, career coaching, delivering feedback, line management, contracting, salary negotiation, and team supervision. I take pride in my methodical accuracy and my excellent written, spoken, and digital communication skills enable productive and effective relationships with people from entry to senior level.
