After many years of working in a variety of roles including sales, insurance, operations, logistics and administration management to name a few, I have developed a variety of skills and experiences which have lead to my discovery of the world of Human Resources in which I have found a genuine passion.I moved to New Zealand in 2006 and in 2009 I spent 2 years working as an Administration/HR Manager for a general aviation company based in Hamilton. From here, the parent company, Oceania Aviation Group, asked me to become the HR Manager for their group of aviation companies. This included several aviation focused businesses spread over 10 New Zealand locations. I remained with the organisation for a further 3 years in this role. I then carried out a 15 month contract with Wesfarmers Industrial and Safety NZ as a Senior HR Advisor before moving to Carter Holt Harvey as HR Operations Manager. These roles have given me exposure to large trans Tasman corporate organisations and some experiences that I had not previously encountered including some invaluable time working with multiple Union organisations. This has been excellent experience from which I am sure I have taken many worthwhile lessons.I consider myself to be a true generalist HR professional who is pragmatic in my approach. My strengths would be in building relationships which enable positive engagement, learning, development and a positive platform allowing the business to operate efficiently and effectively.
