Before joining Integra, I spent nine years in the retail industry, starting in customer service and eventually transitioning to the role of Operations Executive. In this capacity, I managed accounts, handled payroll, created staff schedules, and consistently met deadlines. Joining Integra marked a significant career change for me, providing an excellent opportunity to work with important documents, interact with Medical Professionals, QA members and ensure smooth departmental coordination to meet goals, all while enjoying the intricacies of documentation.
I recently completed a course in accounting and payroll. In my spare time, I continue to immerse myself in these areas, reflecting my passion for continuous learning and professional growth.
