Portia Khundo
@portiakhundo
I keep banking executives and IT teams organised through precise administration, project coordination, and stakeholder support.
What I'm looking for
I've supported executives and operational teams at First National Bank since 2018, currently managing administration for the Chief Information Officer in Unsecured Lending & Transact. I coordinate complex diaries, local and international travel, executive packs, meetings, invoices, purchase orders, onboarding, offboarding, and system access.
Previously, I supported the CEO and PMO Head at FNB Short Term Insurance, preparing ExCo and committee presentations, managing contingent-worker contracts and renewals, and coordinating vendors, events, assets, and payments. I bring extensive executive-assistant experience from Affinity Health, where I supported directors, the CEO, and IT leadership while coordinating cross-departmental projects.
My work is grounded in accurate administration, confidential information handling, customer service, relationship management, and following tasks through to completion. I use Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Hansoft, BaseCamp, and electronic filing systems to keep teams informed and work moving.
With a Bachelor of Business Administration and twelve years of experience while studying full time, I'm dedicated, honest, humble, and focused on continued growth.
