Antoinette Van Der Westhuizen
@antoinettevanderwest
I strengthen financial governance through audit, forensic investigations, and CFO-level financial controls.
What I'm looking for
I've delivered audit, governance, and financial reconstruction work for organisations including Rustenburg Local Municipality, Lekwa Local Municipality, Botshelo Water, Robben Island Museum, and North West Development Corporation.
As CFO at Vuselela TVET College, I implemented a financial control framework that reduced reporting errors and closed segregation-of-duties gaps. I reported financial status and strategic direction directly to the Governing Body and its sub-committees.
At MVI Group, I led teams of 5–7 auditors and financial analysts across 12+ clients annually, covering GRAP, IFRS, PMFA, MFMA, and Treasury Regulations. I've also conducted forensic investigations with corporate forensic teams and presented evidence-based findings to governing bodies, audit and risk committees, and elected officials.
