An HR & Payroll practitioner with over 20 years of experience—since 1999, she has led the first wave of HR digitalization in companies: replacing paper payrolls with IT systems and implementing electronic settlements with the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS). Since then, she has managed projects involving distributed team management, process outsourcing, and the implementation of modern payroll platforms across various industries. Her business expertise is complemented by her role as a court expert in labor law and compensation.
In local government, she leads a digital and open back-office transformation: a modern HR & Payroll system with integrated employee self-service, e-Deliveries, electronic document workflow, RPA bots, the eKasa portal, a pilot of e-Payments integrated with the mObywatel app, and open data initiatives within the GZM Metropolis-PwC project. In 2020, she conducted the first fully online recruitment in Polish local government (for a unit director), setting a new standard for public sector hiring.
She holds degrees in economic and public administration and an MBA for Local Government Leaders, and is certified in PM² and Change Management.
