What I'm looking for

I am looking for a job that allows me to continue making a positive impact on society. I am particularly interested in roles that involve project management, community development, and social media management. I value company cultures that prioritize social responsibility and offer opportunities for career growth.

I am Mpho Mahlatsi, a project manager with a strong background in social impact initiatives. I have a Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing from the University of South Africa (UNISA) and a Short Course Certificate in Human Resources. Throughout my career, I have been involved in various projects that aim to make a positive difference in society.

One of my notable roles was as a Project Manager at The Journey Home Project, where I successfully identified sponsors and wrote proposals for project events. I also organized income-generating events and managed skills development partnerships. At ThisAbility Newspaper, I ran the day-to-day operations, sourced disability-focused stories, and wrote funding proposals. Additionally, I managed social media and organized trainings for journalists with disabilities.

As the Country Partner for South Africa at Tropics Business Summit, I moderated the main event, sourced venues, and handled logistics for international speakers. I also sought sponsors and partners for the conference. In my role as Project Manager and Deputy Chairperson of the board at See More Possibilities Foundation, I organized conferences for youth development, managed logistics, and facilitated educational tours for international youth.
