I turn retail investment product problems into data-backed requirements, recommendations, and delivery plans.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
At Allan Gray, I support retail investment product development through research, product analysis, design, decision-making and implementation. I translate product concepts and operational problems into requirements, analysis packs, recommendation papers and implementation options.
I work across product, IT, operations, legal/compliance and distribution to clarify requirements, manage trade-offs and support cross-functional delivery. Using SQL, Python, Power Query, Power BI and Excel, I turn product and operational data into clear research and stakeholder reporting.
Previously, at Cartrack, I developed reporting and analytics solutions and executive reports in a fast-paced software and data environment. At PwC, I supported strategy, transformation, cost modelling, customer experience and sales-process redesign projects.
My engineering background and CFA studies strengthen the way I approach investment products, commercial decisions and technical complexity. I’m focused on product roles where customer needs, data, commercial judgement and technical feasibility shape decisions.
