I am delighted to recommend Lora Wilcox! In her position as Payroll Team Lead at Manpower, Lora performed with excellence; consistently exceeding expectations. She has excellent written and verbal communication skills, is extremely organized, can work independently, and is able to follow through to ensure that the job gets done. During her tenure with our company, Lora was responsible for leading a team that processed payroll for upwards of 45,000 associates from up to 480 different branch offices across the US each week. Under Lora’s dedicated care, payroll was successfully processed on time and error free week after week. Lora effectively managed her daily and weekly schedule to accommodate an ever-changing payroll environment to ensure constant success. She provided outstanding leadership to her team, supported her peers, and acted as a primary go-to-gal for the management staff. Her ability to show initiative and demonstrate creative problem-solving was outstanding! Lora also performed training activities and successfully mentored new payroll coordinators, as well as new Team Leads. Lora’s pleasant disposition and willingness to do whatever needed made her an extremely valuable asset to our operation. Additionally, it’s important to point out that Lora was always the first to offer her expertise and guidance, and maintained an excellent rapport with her external customers, her team members, her peers in the office, and her management staff. Her upbeat demeanor along with her ability to effectively communicate via email, via phone, and in person are a few of her key strengths. I can confidently endorse Lora and believe she would add value to any company, and I recommend her for any endeavor she chooses to pursue.
