My University career started in October 2012 when I joined Procurement Services as a Purchasing Assistant. After 5 years I took on a 9 month secondment as an Administration Officer in Accommodation Services, which led me onto a position within the Operations Team in the School of Engineering.
As Operations Administrator, I was responsible for the general administrative support in the Front Office, which includes purchasing, assisting with the running of events, administering post, maintaining office equipment, preparing routing correspondence and diary management. I also managed allocation of duties and workload of staff, in liaison with the Operations Team Leader. In 2022, I have joined the National Innovation Centre for Ageing as a Business Support Administrator, and later as Centre Administrator. I was responsible for purchasing, travel, project support, events, recruitment and general administration. I was also responsible for line managing a small team.
I have recently joined the People, Engagement and Culture team as an Administrative Team Leader. I manage a team of 3 people and I am responsible for budget reporting, recruitment, purchasing, and the administration of several programmes.
Before joining the University I was a Purchasing Assistant in industry for 5 years, responsible for raising purchase orders, monitoring stock levels and chasing deliveries.
