South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
I am an experienced legal secretary with a strong background in marketing management. In my current role at VFV Attorneys, I am responsible for typing legal documents, corresponding with opposing attorneys, and negotiating settlements. I also accompany the attorney to court and prepare court bundles for trials. My attention to detail and strong organizational skills have allowed me to excel in this position.
Prior to my role as a legal secretary, I worked as an executive personal assistant at Pandemonium Construction. In this role, I conducted research, liaised with staff and suppliers, and documented meeting minutes. I also played a key role in monitoring the company's digital presence and managing social media accounts for marketing purposes. My experience in the construction industry has given me a unique perspective and the ability to adapt to fast-paced environments.
Before entering the legal and construction fields, I gained valuable customer service experience as a call center agent at UDM International. I was responsible for selling products, processing orders, and providing product information to clients. My strong communication skills and ability to upsell products allowed me to achieve success in this role.
