With a proven record of success in Retail Management, as well as CIPD level 5 HR studies, I am well-prepared to meet and exceed goals as a human resource professional. 

I am a very people orientated person and pride myself on being approachable, hardworking and honest. I have gained hands on experience in a variety of roles within large public and private sector organisations. I gained excellent communication, written and verbal skills which enable me to adapt to any environment quickly, with people from all walks of life.

Due to my experience with research and planning, I am an expert in learning any subject quickly and thoroughly. I am also able to build strong relationships with subject matter experts to learn industry-specific information that can aid me in training employees.

My favorite part of the learning and development process is working with diverse groups of employees with varying personalities and talents. I love meeting new people and adapting my training approach to unique learning styles. I find I learn so much in every training encounter I have.

I constantly use technology to facilitate efficient and accessible learning for employees. I've given online assessments, surveys, presentations and had countless virtual meetings. I also record all off my training presentations and sessions to ensure any employees can access them again. I am always happy to train employees on the use of technology and answer questions they may have.
