What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can combine accurate administration and accounting support with excellent customer service—using Sage to process invoices and keep records up to date, while contributing to smooth day-to-day operations and team success.

I’m a store manager and administrator with a strong foundation in accounting science, currently studying towards a Higher Certificate in Accounting Science at UNISA. I bring a practical, customer-first mindset to every task—whether I’m supporting clients, managing day-to-day operations, or handling financial administration.

From May 2021 to Jan 2025, I worked at Fototec (Code 8 Manager / Designer), handling cash and supplier payments, managing stock, and ensuring smooth customer service for both walk-ins and online orders. I also designed artwork using Adobe Photoshop and CorelDRAW, and supported production by maintaining and operating a Roland machine, including printing, maintenance, and performance checks.

In Feb 2025, I moved into an Administrator role at Green Africa Projects, where I handle calls, emails, appointments, agendas, and minutes. I also process invoices and quotes on Sage, maintain accurate record keeping, and manage accounts payable and accounts receivable while ensuring financial data stays complete and up to date.

I’m motivated by clear communication, strong organization, and staying accurate under pressure. I enjoy improving processes, preparing monthly summary reports, and using my skills to help a team run efficiently and confidently.
