I keep senior executives organised through complex calendars, board materials, travel, and confidential administration.

I'm currently supporting the Managing Director at Nais Management Services, managing priorities, appointments, executive correspondence, meeting packs, travel, expenses, minutes and follow-up actions.

Across roles at 2020 Insight, Alexkor SOC Ltd, JSE Ltd and the Estate Agency Affairs Board, I've supported CEOs, chairpersons, legal leaders and HR directors with diaries, board packs, reports, stakeholder communication and confidential administration.

I've also managed office operations at Seleka Attorneys Inc and supported HR administration at Buzile HR, including employee records, contracts, recruitment coordination, onboarding and audit-ready documentation.

I bring experience from corporate, legal, public-sector and professional-services environments, balancing competing deadlines while keeping executive and business information organised, accurate and confidential.
