New staff

Poppy Sparsi joined the HFA team as the Administration Officer in March 2018.

Poppy comes to the position with over 20 years of experience in administration support roles in a variety of sectors including education, health services and corporate industry.  

Since starting at HFA, she has found it rewarding to use the variety of her skills in her new role. ‘It’s a diverse role in a small but very interesting and busy office,’ said Poppy. ‘I enjoy interacting with people and working for people, keeping up with technology and just getting the job done.’

After spending 16 years in education at Trinity Grammar School, Poppy took some time off to travel, before securing contract work in a variety of roles including health services and corporate industry.  

‘Before joining HFA my knowledge of blood disorders was very limited,’ commented Poppy. ‘In my brief time here, I have learned quite a bit more about some of the various disorders, and I'm sure I will continue to learn more.’

Outside of work Poppy enjoys ballroom dancing and is exploring painting and drawing as a new hobby. ‘I suggest everyone buy an original now before my works become expensive!’ she joked.

Poppy works Monday to Thursday and can be contacted at HFA:
