• Company Overview: Offshore Recruitment Agency

CM Sourcing provided me with a structured and supportive career ladder, enabling me to develop and grow my skill set.

Over the course of my time with the company, I am proud to have earned three promotions, reflecting my dedication, initiative, and ability to exceed my employer's expectations.

I began my career at CM Sourcing as a Logistics Coordinator, where I was responsible for ensuring efficient and successful transportation logistics for candidates traveling across multiple countries to join vessels.

This role required meticulous attention to detail, as I managed visa arrangements, letters of guarantee, contractor paperwork, and other documentation to ensure compliance with international regulations, such as work eligibility within 12nm of project zones.

This position taught me how to work smart, plan effectively, and solve problems under pressure.

I also gained skills in travel fee negotiations and anticipating challenges before they arose.

My ability to handle these responsibilities with precision and dedication led to a promotion after just three months.

As a Personnel Coordinator, I embraced a new set of challenges by learning how to identify top talent and cultivate professional relationships with contractors, candidates, and client organizations worldwide.

This role allowed me to develop stronger interpersonal, negotiation, and networking skills.

I became more involved in the human resources aspect of the business, aligning talent acquisition strategies with the company's goals and ensuring that both candidates and clients received personalized and effective solutions.

This role also broadened my cultural awareness and adaptability when working with diverse teams globally.

Six months later, following extensive industry-specific training and consistently achieving my targets, I was promoted to Operations Assistant.

This role expanded my responsibilities to include process improvement, training and onboarding new team members, marketing development, and operational planning.

I also played a key role in driving company growth by collaborating across departments and ensuring smooth day-to-day operations.

This role came with its challenges, as the company experienced a high volume of work, requiring me to frequently step beyond my job description.

Balancing multiple responsibilities taught me to prioritize effectively and adapt quickly to dynamic situations, while maintaining a clear focus on team goals.

Despite the challenges, I found great satisfaction in contributing to the company's success and in fostering a cohesive team environment.

Recognizing my eagerness to grow and take on additional responsibilities, my employer provided advanced training and set performance targets to prepare me for a leadership role.

After meeting and exceeding these goals, I was promoted to Junior Client Manager.

In this role, I managed client accounts, established and maintained strong relationships with clients and candidates, and delivered tailored solutions to meet the competitive needs of both parties.

I also explored new business opportunities, supported the growth of smaller clients, and analyzed competitors' strategies to identify and fill gaps in their services.

This position required me to demonstrate initiative, integrity, and professionalism, as well as an advanced understanding of the offshore industry. It was both challenging and rewarding, allowing me to refine my leadership skills, develop strategic thinking, and drive results for the company.
