Priya Raman, Office Manager
Priya Raman is an office manager five years into administrative work, from an internship at a law firm through an assistant post at an importer to running the office of a 40-person wholesaler, sending this resume to companies that need someone to keep the place moving. An office manager is hired for organisation and temperament as much as for a history, so this resume keeps the roles to three dated lines and gives the two strengths that matter most a heading each.
Why this resume works
- The objective sits in the column under the portrait and says the size of the company she runs the office for, 40 people, so a reader has the scale before the roles.
- The three roles read as dated lines from intern to assistant to manager in the same trade, which shows the promotion path without a paragraph for each.
- The one paragraph on the page carries two numbers, an 18% cut in stationery spend and a courier queue ended, chosen because they are the kind of result an office manager is measured on.
- Communication and Leadership are sections of her own under the same plum headings as the history, each a short paragraph with a fact in it, the two languages she takes calls in and the two assistants promoted from within.
- The degree is one bulleted line under the college, an associate degree in business administration, which is the honest weight for a role hired on experience.
