About

Professional summary

I am a results-driven Human Resources and Administrative professional with over eight years of progressive experience spanning HR operations, administration, procurement, customer service, and business operations. I combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution to improve organisational efficiency, compliance, and service quality.

I have led organisational restructuring initiatives, reviewed and improved HR policies and processes, designed performance assessment tools, and advised leadership on people management and operational best practices. My experience includes workforce coordination, employee performance evaluation, onboarding, training, attendance management, and records administration.

I am experienced in end-to-end administrative operations, procurement coordination, inventory management, supplier liaison, claims documentation, executive support, calendar management, meeting coordination, and event logistics. I am highly organised and committed to maintaining accurate, audit-ready records.

I have a strong background in stakeholder engagement, client relationship management, complaint resolution, negotiation, and customer retention. I have worked collaboratively with leadership teams, suppliers, foreign partners, auditors, engineering, production, sales, and marketing teams to achieve operational goals.

I use Microsoft Office tools, especially Excel, Word, and PowerPoint, to streamline reporting, automate processes, track performance, and support data-driven decisions. I am currently expanding my HR capability through Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria training and remain committed to continuous professional development.
