I have supported C-Level Executives and managed business operations for over 15 years. My scheduling, human resources, strategic partnerships, organization, finances, and leadership skills are excellent. My computer skills are also outstanding including the entire Microsoft Suite and Adobe Software Suite, several CRMs, Confluence, and many other applications.
Over the past few years, I have been with a large Australian company, Quantium, supporting the Head of the US. I was integral in setting up the US business; acquiring offices, assisting with Visa applications, transitioning Australian team members and hiring new team members. This role was very fluid and ambiguous and there were always new things to figure out or take the lead on, while ensuring we were in compliance with all laws, immigration, HR (federal and state(s)), etc. The original Head of the US moved back to Australia and I was responsible for onboarding his American replacement and ensuring culture, team morale, and day-to-day business stayed on track. I was also responsible for all US company assets and was our local IT support person. We were essentially a start-up in the US and I had to wear many hats.
I began completing consulting positions with companies such as the Government of Victoria, Australia, TrustToken, Metzano, Desert Research Institute (UNR), and Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation; generally acting in an operations management capacity or as an Executive Assistant supporting C-Level Executives. I am a well-rounded Operations Manager and Senior Executive Level Assistant with a proven track record.
My role as the Executive Assistant to the CTO at Specific Media included ensuring the smooth operation of a 130-person technology team. This included all hiring and HR duties, managing third-party vendors and their contracts, coordinating the construction of a new office, managing and executing special projects, and creating presentations/marketing packages and events for potential clients.
I thrive under pressure and the winning combination of my high energy level and positive attitude results in consistent project success; always accurate, on time, and under budget.
Recently I left Quantium, a company, boss, and team that I love, to pursue another opportunity. That opportunity was with a risky startup and did not work out and I am seeking a new opportunity that will allow me to grow as an employee and take on new responsibilities and challenges.
