Thembelihle Mathipa

I am an organized, reliable, and proactive administrative professional with 3 years of experience as a secretary and 2 years of experience as an Educational Assistant. I am currently transitioning into remote Virtual Assistant and Administrative roles, where I can use my strong organizational, communication, and administrative skills to support businesses and busy professionals.

In my previous roles, I have been responsible for organizing meetings, preparing agendas and minutes, communicating with different stakeholders, managing schedules, handling administrative tasks, capturing and maintaining information, and supporting day-to-day operations. As an Educational Assistant, I also developed strong attention to detail, time-management, problem-solving, and multitasking skills while supporting teachers and learners.

I enjoy organizing information, keeping tasks on track, solving problems, and finding practical ways to make work more efficient. I am comfortable working with Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, Google Workspace, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Trello, Calendly, Slack, and email management. I also have experience with CRM-related tasks and have worked with HubSpot and basic Xero invoicing.

I am particularly interested in Virtual Assistant, Administrative Assistant, Executive Assistant, Operations Assistant, Customer Support, and other remote roles where I can provide reliable day-to-day support. I am a fast learner and enjoy learning new tools and systems. I am comfortable working independently, managing priorities, communicating clearly, and meeting deadlines.

I am based in South Africa and am open to working with international and remote-first companies. My goal is to build long-term working relationships with companies where I can contribute, continue developing professionally, and grow within a remote career.
