Bio
Raphael Gaudin
I had the opportunity to work with Stella while she managed the HR operations for one of our clients, including payroll process setup and international payroll. Her expertise in HR best practices and payroll management made a significant impact on our client’s organization. Stella demonstrated very good communication skills, providing clear guidance on payroll matters to employees at all levels. I highly recommend Stella for any HR management position, as she possesses the knowledge and skills to successfully handle complex payroll requirements while driving overall HR success.

I had the pleasure of working with Stella on a daily basis and she is an exemplary HR Department leader with a wealth of knoweldge in both Dutch and International HR operations, legislation and practices. Her main responsibility was to develop and lead a high performing HR team of 9 colleagues, to deliver strategic HR programmes and initiatives that supported a start up/scale up company’s business objectives. Often creating new programmes, processes and practices from the ground up, she also developed a close knit and loyal team that delivered excellence consistently during a time of exponential growth. I have no hesitation in recommending Stella as a Human Resources Manager to any organisation and she would be a valuable team mate in any business.
