As the Director of Corporate Partnerships at THRiVE HUB, I proactively identified and built relationships with potential internship placement partners. Additionally, my experience as a Human Resources Manager at SaverTech Limited involved managing the talent acquisition process and overseeing employee disciplinary meetings. I also served as a Learning And Development Specialist at Alerzo, where I developed sustainable training strategies based on company goals and needs. My diverse experience and educational background have equipped me with valuable skills in marketing, corporate partnerships, human resources, and learning and development.
