What I'm looking for

I’m seeking permanent, contract or temporary opportunities in Executive Assistance, Executive Operations, Chief of Staff Support, Governance, Business Operations or Project Coordination. I’m open to remote, hybrid and on-site work.

At ElevateU Business Solutions, I provide executive and virtual support across 50+ active client accounts. I coordinate tender documentation for government and corporate opportunities, maintaining a 100% on-time submission record on opportunities exceeding R2.5 million.

At DIKIZA ACCOUNTANTS, I managed executive calendars, meetings and travel for senior partners, and coordinated more than 200 client meetings with zero scheduling conflicts. I implemented ClickUp and Trello workflows that reduced administrative bottlenecks by approximately 50%.

At the PUBLIC INVESTMENT CORPORATION (PIC), I supported executive, board and investment committee processes in an environment involving a R500B+ asset-management portfolio. I also coordinated more than 500 international travel arrangements across 15+ global markets. I’m available for permanent, contract and temporary opportunities, including remote, hybrid and on-site work.
