Summary

I am an astute and highly qualified professional with 5 years of experience across a variety of challenging roles, consistently delivering bespoke business solutions to reputable organizations. My expertise spans administration, exports, travel coordination, payment processing, staff time management, and operational support. I am proficient in communication, customer service, strategic planning, and active innovation, all of which contribute to the successful achievement of business goals.

In my previous role as a Personal Assistant/Secretary at a property company, I gained valuable experience managing schedules, handling client communications, and coordinating diverse administrative tasks. This role further enhanced my ability to multitask and manage multiple priorities effectively. I also bring strong customer service experience, having honed communication, problem-solving, and customer satisfaction skills at ARB Electrical. I pride myself on my attention to detail, ability to stay calm under pressure, and excellent organizational skills.

In my current position with Transnet Freight Rail, I manage safety data and data capture, support health and safety compliance, and ensure efficient on-site operations. This experience, combined with my administrative skills in document organization, schedule management, and senior support, makes me well-suited for a Personal Assistant role. My experience in a fast-paced environment has further sharpened my ability to multitask, manage priorities, and deliver results under pressure.
