What I'm looking for

I seek a role in supply chain, inventory or accounting where I can apply SAP and depot supervision skills, improve operations, and work within a collaborative, safety-focused team.

I am a highly motivated accounting and supply-chain professional with hands-on experience supervising depot operations, stock control, and administrative reporting across multiple Grain Marketing Board depots. I hold a BCom (Hons) in Accounting and am pursuing a Master of Commerce in Professional Accounting and Corporate Governance.

My practical experience spans receipt, storage and dispatch of agricultural inputs and grain, quality monitoring, stock reconciliations, SAP postings, and cash handling. I have led teams as an Assistant Supply Chain Manager and Handling Supervisor, implementing SOPs, conducting inspections, preparing financial and operational reports, and ensuring safety and quality standards.

I am known for strong organizational skills, integrity, effective communication, and a willingness to go the extra mile. I am immediately available and seek roles that leverage my accounting knowledge, supply-chain supervision experience, and SAP competence to improve operational efficiency.
