What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role where I can shape narratives, support business goals, and build strong stakeholder connections.

I'm Anelisa Tuswa, a seasoned communications and content specialist with nearly a decade of experience in storytelling and audience engagement. Currently, I work at JUMO, where I support the development and execution of our communications strategy, ensuring brand consistency and alignment with strategic priorities. My role involves writing high-quality, insight-driven content for various platforms, including media, social media, and internal communications.

Previously, I have held positions such as Senior Copywriter at HaveYouHeard Agency and Senior Content Editor at Dentsu Creative, where I honed my skills in business and economic writing, content planning, and social media management. My experience also includes producing business news for ETV News and Sports, where I developed a keen understanding of the media landscape and audience needs.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my contributions, including being named one of the Top 200 Young South Africans by Mail & Guardian in 2020. I am passionate about shaping narratives that support business goals and build strong stakeholder connections.
