What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters growth, collaboration, and innovation in IT service management.

I am an accomplished IT Change and Release Manager with a strong background in managing complex IT systems and ensuring seamless service transitions. My journey began with a National Diploma in Information Technology, followed by a Bachelor's degree in Knowledge Management and a Master's in Information Technology, which I am set to complete in 2024. I have honed my skills through various roles, including my current position at Vitality Group, where I lead change management initiatives and oversee release management processes.

Throughout my career, I have successfully implemented change management policies, coordinated software releases, and facilitated stakeholder communication to ensure minimal disruption to business operations. My experience at the South African Reserve Bank and other reputable organizations has equipped me with the ability to manage risks effectively, drive continuous improvement, and foster a culture of compliance and proactive problem-solving. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to enhance IT service delivery and contribute to organizational success.
