I keep executive calendars, office systems, travel, records, and communications running smoothly.
What I'm looking for
I've provided executive support, office administration, and operations coordination for more than 15 years across South Africa and the UK. I manage calendars, meetings, travel, confidential correspondence, records, and day-to-day office systems with accuracy and professionalism.
At Overstrand Hospice, I supported senior management, fundraising, donor records, and volunteer coordination, creating a digital database that improved communication with staff, volunteers, and supporters. Previously, I strengthened filing and supplier processes at The Eatery – Food Cellar and handled extensive PA, travel, expense, and meeting-support work at Kent Fire and Rescue Service.
