I am a South African citizen and have over thirty years administration experience working in various sectors, corporate environments, academic institutions, NGO’s and businesses in South Africa, The Middle East and the United Kingdom. My experiences as administrative support has been on various levels including, Strategic and Senior management as well as operational levels. Throughout my career, as a self-starter, I have garnered skills, knowledge and experiences that have enhanced my administrative leadership and support expertise. All these attributes allow me to work well under pressure. The range of organisations I have worked for has also exposed me to different management and administrative practises in diverse cultural, academic and economic spaces with excellence and quality standards an integral feature. My ability to function administratively within a limited scope or entire projects are excellent. My repertoire of skills includes; finances (managing research contracts department budgets, petty cash management, debtors management and reconciling accounts), preparing power point presentations for Directors Meetings, Senior Management Meetings, Funder Meetings and Strategic Planning meetings, preparing agendas, minute taking; action logs; assessing, liaising and managing external service providers ; year planners and diary management (including shared calendar management of Executives) and other basic administrative functions within the scope of needs in a department. My overall experience and knowledge of processors are invaluable in linking functions and departments to project deliverables. I have an inherent ability to tick all the “check-boxes” in a logical and efficient manner in an administrative space. This is another benefit of my years of experience. I have administered projects and events as per project plan and have provided insight and detail to projects based on my overall administrative knowledge and practices. In addition, I have implemented processors and procedures to bring efficiencies and quality standards. I have added value through innovative ways to allow information and data to be managed more effectively within departments and contributed to monitoring, evaluation and improvement of administrative systems in organisations. My work experience has also exposed me to interaction in diverse and multicultural environments. This has increased my professional capacity to deal with various people at different levels. I am an accomplished communicator with a positive mindset, and I exercise emotional intelligence. I have a proven track record of being highly efficient and organized. I have successfully completed the associate in management Programme (AIM) at the University of Cape Town, Graduate School of Business, which aimed to develop and equip individuals with the necessary knowledge and skills to enhance their managing and organizational competencies.
