What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a remote Operations, Logistics, Administration, or Finance role with an international team where I can apply my import/export, freight forwarding, compliance, bookkeeping, and foreign creditor administration experience.

I've led international import and export operations, bookkeeping, debtors, creditors, and financial reporting at Mopane Cargo Management, coordinating ocean and air freight from booking through final delivery.

Across 40+ years with Mopane Cargo Management, Megafreight Services, Expeditors International, and Standard Bank, I've managed customs documentation, foreign creditor accounts, cross-border payments, foreign exchange administration, and operational teams. I bring reliable, compliant coordination across freight forwarding, supply chain, banking, and finance functions, and continue to provide specialist consulting support.
