Wendy Monks
HR and Accounting Support Manager
Wendy joined Herron in early 2016. Originally the Accounting Support team was a stand-alone role, but as the years progressed and so did the demand, the team has grown to a staff of seven.
Wendy has more than 25 years’ experience in the areas of Accounting, Human Resources and Payroll, having worked across a variety of industries, including mining, manufacturing, recruitment and financial services. Wendy has qualifications in business, human resources and workplace training and assessment.
The role of Manager, HR and Accounting Support is wide and varied. Each day brings different challenges. The role covers all areas of Human Resources and Payroll, both internally and providing advice to clients externally. Payroll Tax, WorkCover, Employment Agreements, Employee Payroll, Employee Terminations and Superannuation are just some of the areas of expertise. Accounting Support covers all aspects of bookkeeping.
Wendy really revels in the way in which each team works in unison to achieve one goal – the best possible outcome for our clients. She loves mentoring staff to develop and hone their skills and watch them grow within their roles.
Her proudest achievement so far would be the development and growth of the Accounting Support team. Each staff member is an active member of the team – with a joint pool of knowledge to ensure the client receives the best possible service. Each day is a different day, with different challenges and adventures.
On a personal level, Wendy enjoys spending time with her family, walking her two dogs (a 13 year old Cavalier King Charles and a 2 year old Labrador), CrossFit and catching up with friends.
