## About

At Nelson Mandela University, I administer funds from internal and external sources and process and disburse financial aid to students.

I also manage financial resources and ensure accurate allocation, while working with external partners and stakeholders and representing the organization on committees.

Earlier, as a Financial Aid Assistant at Nelson Mandela University, I processed applications, updated records, and checked financial documents and calculations for accuracy and compliance.

At Unilever, I validated claims against internal records, managed SAP agreement numbers for payment and settlement, and processed payments. I also provided periodic reporting and reviewed claims status.
