Dublin, County Dublin, Ireland
A motivated and ambitious HR Generalist with a genuine passion for people and a strong commitment to supporting employees at every stage of their journey within an organisation. Holding a BA (Hons) in Human Resource Management (2:1) from the National College of Ireland, I combine a solid academic foundation with practical, hands-on experience across a broad range of HR disciplines including administration, employee relations and generalist HR. In my current role as an HR Generalist, I work closely with colleagues, people managers and senior stakeholders across a broad range of HR disciplines, spanning employee relations, leave management, policy refinement and HRIS development. I lead on ER cases, deliver training to people managers, steer monthly HR Operations calls and co-lead the ERG for Employee Wellbeing. Most recently, I have played an active role in expanding the firm's HRIS and global systems to support the onboarding of additional EMEA countries. I pride myself on being flexible, adaptable and eager to learn, bringing a collaborative and solutions-driven approach to everything I do. Prior to this, my experience with The HR Company provided me with a strong grounding in employment law, contract preparation, employee handbooks and HR advisory support which helped in deepening my understanding of employee rights and the importance of clear, compliant documentation in protecting both the individual and the organisation. Beyond my professional experience, I have demonstrated leadership and initiative outside of the workplace. During my time at NCI, I served as President of the Fashion Society from 2021 to 2023, leading a team, managing competing priorities and creating an inclusive environment where members felt heard and valued. I was also awarded Fresher of the Year for the 2020/2021 academic year in recognition of my enthusiasm and involvement across clubs and societies. I am a fluent Irish speaker and hold a full, clean driver's licence.
