What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a data management role where I can apply my experience in administration, reporting, records, and project coordination to support informed decision-making and efficient operations while continuing to develop professionally.

At Youth Employment Service (YES), I supported multi-million-rand grant-funded employment and skills development programmes for international and national funders. I managed data for hundreds of youth across cross-sectoral projects, maintained programme records, validated information, and prepared reports.

I've coordinated stakeholder communication, programme implementation, scheduling, meetings, document control, database maintenance, and quality assurance. I enjoy finding practical ways to improve data quality and reporting processes while providing reliable information for operational and strategic decision-making.

My experience in manufacturing and retail gave me practical exposure to operational processes, compliance, stock control, equipment inspections, and fast-paced working environments.

I'm proficient in Microsoft Office and have advanced Excel training through Sage University’s Excel on Steroids course. I’m seeking a data management role where I can contribute accurate, organised support and continue developing professionally.
