Claudia Davids
@claudiadavids
Detail-oriented administrator with strong communication and analytical skills.
What I'm looking for
With over 20 years of experience in various administrative and quality control roles, I have honed my skills in problem-solving, decision-making, and effective communication. My journey began as a Senior Laboratory Assistant at the University of the Western Cape, where I managed laboratory practicals and developed a strong foundation in scientific research and administration.
As an Administrator at E.S. Davids Attorney, I excel in typing legal documents, managing client communications, and conducting thorough research. My freelance work as a transcriptionist and writing feedback specialist has further enhanced my attention to detail and ability to work independently. I am passionate about delivering high-quality results and supporting clients with their needs.
My academic background includes an MSc in Medical Sciences and a National Diploma in Analytical Chemistry, which complement my extensive experience in quality control and data processing. I am eager to leverage my skills in a dynamic environment that values precision and effective communication.
