Teri Alexander

I’m an experienced and dependable HR professional with over 6 years of hands-on experience across the full employee lifecycle. I’m passionate about supporting people and processes through structured, compliant, and people-centred HR practices. My strengths lie in my ability to stay organised, communicate clearly, and build strong working relationships across all levels of the organisation.

In my current role, I support a wide range of HR functions including recruitment, onboarding, training coordination, and B-BBEE compliance. I also contribute to the development of job descriptions, SOPs, and policy presentations, helping to ensure consistency, clarity, and alignment with company goals. I take pride in delivering high-quality work, maintaining confidentiality, and contributing to a positive and professional workplace culture.
