Senior Leader
Relatively new public service leader with 10+ years in central administration roles. Started career with policy and operations postings. Enjoy building and redesigning org systems for improved outcomes. Strong believer in the importance of org culture in how the future turns out.
Background & Key Achievements
12 formative years in MOM, and was involved in manpower development (pre WDA/WSG), foreign manpower management, national HR capability development and work injury compensation. Loved the strong teamwork, camaraderie and people-centred culture @MOM.
13 years in MOE in 3 director roles, and was involved in HR, education financing and procurement work. Enjoyed the opportunity to work on large systems, and was greatly inspired by the strong sense of mission by our educators. Learnt a lot about working with and partnering sector specialists.
Now @VITAL, leading a team committed to delivering quality corporate shared services for public sector agencies. Enjoying the challenge of keeping the system performing and reliable, while transforming for the next bound.
Fortunate through the years to have worked with and learnt from many great bosses.
How Can I Help
Happy to have chat on central administration areas since I have covered many of them (HR, finance, procurement) in separate postings.
Happy also to share experience transiting from public-facing policy/ops role to central administration role, for those who are either contemplating this or in the midst of transition.
