Jasmine Sloan has celebrated her 10-year milestone with the company by being named the first recipient of the Genetics Australia Staff Excellence Award.
Jasmine received multiple nominations from her peers where she was described as always happy to help anyone with a calm, level-headed disposition.
The nominees were high in praise of Jas. “She takes pride and is very professional in her role, while still being a kind and compassionate member of our team. She really adds to the family,” wrote one nominee.
“Jasmine consistently showcases integrity, humility, farmer’s spirit, and teamwork,” said another. “This is displayed through her determination and completion of tasks assigned to her and offering assistance to others when needed.”
“Jasmine has been the backbone of two business integrations with no complaints and she continues to strive for better. She excels at what she does.”
The accounts and payroll administrator marked her decade with the organisation in April.
“I’ve always been in the accounts area, firstly with TLG, then Genetics Australia after the acquisition and now with the expanded organisation under the Joint Venture,” she said.
“It has definitely become bigger and busier over the past two years since we’ve been in the Joint Venture, but that’s good because it’s busy all the time and you never have to look for anything to do.”
Jasmine likes the regimental nature of working in an accounts department. “I like accounts because there’s always a process you need to follow,” she said. “There’s no making it up as you go along.”
But it’s the group of people who make it a happy work environment. “Everyone gets along; it’s a great team,” she said. “The lunchroom is never quiet which is a good measure of a company.”
Jasmine was the driving force behind the introduction of the Employment Hero payroll system. “Now that we have so many staff members and not everyone works within the office, people can clock in and clock out on their phone and it removes a lot of the physical and manual requirements that people had.”
Jasmine describes the award as a great honour. “I’m glad that people within the organisation appreciate each other.”
Born in Warrnambool, she has been living in Camperdown for the past nine years.
Four Staff Excellence Award recipients will be recognised each year.
