Jessica Faber
@jessicafaber
Detail-oriented admin & finance pro — investment admin, bookkeeping & compliance and FICA, Law Student, plus front-end dev & digital marketing skills.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently in my third year of an LLB at UNISA, alongside a career that's given me hands-on experience across investment administration, bookkeeping, and financial compliance. I started out in administration and travel coordination early in my career, then moved into creditors/procurement work at an HVAC company, where I managed supplier relationships, invoice processing, and cost tracking across multiple projects using Fusion ERP and Pastel.
In 2025, I started my own freelance business, Web Evolution, building websites for clients using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — this grew out of front-end development courses I completed through FreeCodeCamp, and gave me experience managing client relationships, contracts, and project delivery independently as a sole operator. Alongside development work, I also picked up marketing skills (HubSpot, Mailchimp, Canva) which I applied to both my own business and earlier roles doing email/social media marketing.
Since early 2026, I've been working as an Investment Administrator, supporting a broker with FICA compliance, client documentation, and investment product administration on tight processing cycles.
What ties all of this together is that I genuinely enjoy problem-solving and precision-focused work — whether that's reconciling accounts, debugging front-end code, or making sure a client's compliance file is airtight. I'm interested in roles where I can combine that analytical, detail-driven side with client or people-facing responsibility, and I'm especially drawn to remote or flexible roles that let me keep building on both my administrative/financial background and my technical skills.
