OUR PEOPLE | “I'm here as a Mr. Fix-it for Digital Health. When I first introduce myself to someone, that's kind of how I explain my job. I'm here to make things better. It's things like health roster, diary management for the Director, working with Corporate Services, admin support, secretary for a number of committees, ordering supplies, preparing presentations, reports, records management and reporting responses back to the Ministry of Health.
I did work in Human Resources for over 20 years. When I came here, I came as a recruitment manager. Five months in, the previous Director of Digital Health called me into his office to ask about recruitment, as his executive assistant was retiring. He said ‘I need someone like you,’ as he had seen how organised I was. I thought about it and I applied. I got the job.
Away from work, I like to go to the gym, spend time with my family and friends. I'm usually into tasks and checklists, so my weekend is usually spent with a checklist, and I tick things off that I do. My checklist doesn't just have chores and shopping though, it has visits with friends, family, brunches, dinners, activities and things like that. I like to know what I'm doing and be organised,” Igor, Executive Assistant to the Director of Digital Health.
Today is Administrative Professionals Day, a day to acknowledge and celebrate all the admin staff across the District.
