What I'm looking for

I seek a role leveraging team leadership and rigorous data management in research or operations, with ethical practices, stakeholder engagement, and opportunities for impact and skill growth.

I am an experienced data capture and field research professional with a proven record leading teams in national research projects across South Africa. I coordinate stakeholders, supervise fieldworkers, and ensure high-quality, accurate data collection for large surveys.

My background includes team-lead roles at the National Heritage Agency and the Human Sciences Research Council where I managed recruitment, training, data entry, validation and reporting. I consistently maintained confidentiality and complied with data management and POPIA requirements.

I bring hands-on data administration skills from earlier roles in call centres, retail cashiering and clerical receiving, which strengthened my customer service, filing and documentation capabilities. I am comfortable with database maintenance, data cleaning and first-call resolution in high-volume environments.

I pursue opportunities that value rigorous data quality, ethical handling of personal information, and collaborative fieldwork. I am driven to apply my data analytics, stakeholder coordination and team leadership experience to impact-driven research and operational roles.
