Welcoming Mafalda to the ALGAESYS Team
We’re excited to introduce the newest member of the ALGAESYS team, Mafalda Miranda, who has joined us as our Administrator.
Mafalda brings with her a diverse background and an incredible drive for learning and growth. She began working at just 15, building experience across cleaning services, hospitality, retail, and management studies. In her own words, “I’ve always wanted to be independent and do things on my own.” That independence, combined with a passion for supporting people and making their day better, makes her a natural fit for our team and culture.
For Mafalda, this role represents both a new challenge and an opportunity to grow. “I feel connected to the company’s values, especially about taking care of our planet and creating positive results for everyone. That’s something I truly believe in and want to be part of,” she explains.
What excites her most about her role is not just contributing to our mission but growing alongside the team: “I know I have skills for this role, but I’m also aware that I still have a lot to learn.”
Since joining, Mafalda has taken the lead on inspection audits and organising safety courses, while also managing much of the company’s administration. She ensures the smooth handling of invoices, receipts, and expenses, supports Dr. Mahshid and Daniela in their work, and plays a key role in procurement by liaising with organisers, suppliers, and freight companies for our projects.
On top of this, Mafalda also helps translate our content into Portuguese, expanding the reach of our communications. Her dedication to organisation, process improvement, and communication is already making a strong impact across the business.
When asked what her colleagues might be surprised to learn about her, Mafalda simply said she hopes people come to see that she’s a kind person who always tries to contribute to the good of everyone. “If they need something for the company, or even personal support, I’m always here to help.” That collaborative, supportive spirit is something we deeply value at ALGAESYS.
Mafalda is eager to help the company continuously improve — from internal processes to external delivery. “I want to contribute to communication and organization, which I believe are key to constant improvement and growth. At the same time, I want to keep learning new skills from everyone here and make sure everything is clear and well organized for the whole team.”
She’s also looking forward to seeing the results of everyone’s hard work: “I’m excited to see our clients extremely satisfied with both our work and the outcomes of the projects.”
We’re delighted to have Mafalda on board and can already see the positive difference she’s making to our projects, processes, and team culture. Please join us in welcoming her to the ALGAESYS family!
