    For the past 11 years, I have been in a partnership of a small earthmoving business. I do all administrative duties for the business, whilst the other partner is in the field. From scheduling, data entry, payroll, parts finder and invoicing, I have a wide range of knowledge in the office, using MYOB as my choice of platform. I have a passion for knowledge, and love researching to find as much information as possible. In my spare time I love a good book, typically non-fiction. I also judge gymnastics as a volunteer for my daughter local club and attend many football matches for my son.

    I have worked in administration for over 10 years and have held numerous positions at different levels within this field. I have worked for different organisations within this time which I feel has given me not only a great variety of knowledge and experience but confidence in this field as well. I know what it means to take control of the task at hand with ease and a positive attitude but also how to remain flexible while staying vigilant around deadlines and maintaining a fine quality of work. I know I am able to work independently and produce an extremely high standard of work because I believe in having an outstanding work ethic and the know the importance of showing up for not only myself but the people who are relying on me and that is what truely drives me, to complete everything I take on to the best of my ability and create the greatest possible outcome.
