Human Resource Resources
Resume:
Dear Hiring Manager,
I ran across your Human Resource opening and it appears to be a great fit to fully utilize my wealth of Human Resource experience. In my previous role, I worked as a Director of Human Resources with experience managing a Human Resource staff in a fast paced international environment.
As an effective Business Partner, while working with the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), department management, faculty and staff employees, I listened to the concerns of management and staff and took immediate action while maintaining compliance within the organization. I have proven success with managing the day-to-day Human Resource processes and procedures within the strategic vision of the organization. My experience includes working in a corporate and educational setting. In addition to my duties, I regularly attended Board meetings in my role.
My previous experience has allowed me a unique opportunity to be held accountable for all HR related duties for Atlanta International School (AIS) to include on-boarding, recruitment, performance management, training & development, benefits administration, compliance, compensation, policies & procedures, and immigration. I have a wealth of Human Resource experience working as an employee as well as a consultant.
At the Atlanta International School, our goal was to provide our domestic and international faculty and staff with an amazing experience. The Human Resource department assisted with anything to make sure the focus remained on providing an exceptional education to our students. The current population of students, parents, faculty, and staff represents more than 90 countries and speak more than 50 languages. My staff and I were extremely adaptive to our community needs.
Please review my resume and I am available to speak in more detail either over the phone, videoconference or an in-person interview. I am looking for a full-time, part-time or consultant opportunity and I am available immediately.
I appreciate your time in reviewing my qualifications. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Lisa Williams-Coleman
