Summary

Working as a Mental Injury Senior Case Manager for close to two years and my customer service background has not only allowed me to learn about the importance of positive relationships in the workplace, but has also allowed me to build on my accountability and adaptability skillset. I’ve learned that mental injuries in the workplace are unique and to support a person, it takes a certain proactivity and attention to detail to provide this. This role has given me the chance to recognise the necessary steps to take in supporting an individual in their recovery whilst also achieving return to work goals. I’m hoping to take my knowledge and experience to the next level in a specialist role with managing more complex claims, taking on a mentor position and growing confidence in my skillset.
