Aviwe Mqeku
MANAGEMENT ASSISTANT (N4-N6)
Worcester
Summary
I am efficient in lsiXhosa and English. I have strong teamwork and people skills to work with all ages in particular children. I believe I am organised with strong administration skills combined with the ability to execute programmes in a timely fashion. I am a natural team leader but I can also work efficiently in a team. I have experience in Libraries conducting tasks such as daily administration, filing, organising collections and assisting the public. I also have experience in Toy Libraries where I specialise in reading books, play sessions and thinking out of the box by doing displays. I learnt various skills in the library environment such as the ability to deal with upset and aggressive people and children. I believe my training as a Census field worker gives me the necessary experience to do data analysis and report writing.
