Moreover, the chance to work with a diverse range of stakeholders and support the CEO and Deputy CEOs in their roles is a challenge that I am eager to take on. My key strengths lie in my excellent interpersonal and communication skills, adaptability, and empathy. As an Associate Professor, I have mentored and guided students in their academic progress, while also managing effective collaborations with my colleagues and participating in university-level committees. As the Head of Department, I have demonstrated strong leadership skills by ensuring the academic excellence of the department, managing and motivating staff, and effectively communicating with senior management.

I believe my skills and experience make me an ideal fit for the Executive Assistant role at VRQA. I am particularly drawn to the company's mission to provide quality learning outcomes and its role as a system steward in Victoria's education sector.
