Sarah Alexander

I am a versatile and committed professional with over a decade of experience in diverse roles, including Human Resources, Retail Operations and Academic Research. My goal is to leverage this blend of experience and skills to guide individuals towards fulfilling career paths and successful professional growth. What I bring to a Business: I have honed essential skills crucial for a Career Coach throughout my professional journey. These include comprehensive knowledge of recruitment processes, career aptitude and interest evaluations, data management, and developing training sessions focused on career progression. In my most recent role at the Victorian Catholic Education Authority, I drove recruitment for over 60 staff and streamlined HR processes, demonstrating my ability to manage and optimise complex operations effectively. Additionally, My tenure as a Research Assistant at Swinburne University of Technology, leading research on career anxiety, significantly enhanced my understanding of career development, equipping me with practical insights to guide individuals towards achieving their professional goals. How I deliver proven results: Underpinned by an academic background in Psychology, Education and Career Development, have been pivotal in my career. I excel in communication, relationship building, and mentoring, skills I have consistently applied in roles requiring high-level stakeholder engagement. These competencies, coupled with my understanding of career-related stress and proficiency in research and psychological insight, have equipped me to effectively support and guide individuals in their career journeys.
