I joined Varengold Bank as Executive/Personal Assistant to the Board Members (CEO/DFO/MD) from October 2010 until March 2012. Varengold Bank has become my training ground as this is where I have learned and acquired many skills and experiences that I am still using or probably have nourished now. From simple administration tasks e.g., screening emails and calls, managing calendars and events, I have also developed my professional corporate and communication skills.
Apart from the stipulated responsibilities of a PA/EA, I was also in charge of managing the office and provided a majority of administration tasks. Few of the contributions I have for the company is setting up their organizational and administrative structure and that includes, handling the Human Resources and procedures myself. Having said that, I handled the recruitment, training, employment process, and payroll. I also designed company SOP, policies and procedures, letters, contracts, etc. in accordance to the UAE law.
