What I'm looking for
I am a meticulous Legal Administrator and Logistics Controller with hands-on experience in legal support, documentation, and dispatch operations across Durban-based organisations. I bring proven ability in managing case files, drafting and proofreading legal documents, and maintaining strict confidentiality while handling high volumes of sensitive information.
In logistics roles I oversaw daily dispatch planning, driver monitoring, vehicle readiness, and performance reporting, while training staff and resolving operational issues to maintain accurate turnaround times. My combined legal and logistics background enables me to streamline processes, support attorneys and management, and ensure compliance with procedures.
I am calm under pressure, solutions-focused, and quick to learn new systems. I prioritise professionalism, clear stakeholder communication, and attention to detail to support efficient operations and strong client service.
