Sonette Hill

I am a dynamic and results-driven project leader with over 30 years of entrepreneurial and operational expertise in global localization, client success, and business development. My experience includes managing cross-cultural, distributed teams and complex projects across multiple time zones, delivering high-impact results for global clients such as Microsoft, Samsung, and Oxford University Press.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to lead global localization initiatives, including the delivery of multilingual education content for Oxford University Press in all 11 official South African languages, on time and on budget. I have also spearheaded the localization of Microsoft Office and Windows for African markets, collaborating directly with teams in Ireland and Seattle. My commitment to sustainable innovation is evident in my founding of Project Noordhoeked, an award-winning conservation and job creation initiative.

As a founder of The Gypsy Life, I launched a unique guesthouse brand that emphasizes sustainability and creativity. I am fully remote-ready with reliable fibre internet and excellent communication skills, making me adaptable to work across international schedules.
