OLIVIA LAWRENCE

MARKETING GRADUATE
Cape Town

Summary

As a graduate who holds a National Diploma in Marketing Management which I have obtained from Northlink College, I believe I am a self - motivated, disciplined, hardworking, and goal-orientated individual who is passionate, focused on hard work and positive contributions to my chosen industry.


I also believe in uplifting and empowering others through the knowledge I have acquired, and my experiences gained over time. Therefore, I believe that my educational and work experience both within the Retail, Marketing, and Educational Sector as well as working in the NGO Sector as a volunteer has effectively introduced a work ethic that speaks for more than hard work, diligence, and accountability.


My goal is to use my skills acquired through my educational and professional experiences within the work industry to contribute to the sustained growth of a business. I am also prepared to put my knowledge and abilities into practice to deliver the best results to advance my career.

I will also use the skills I have acquired to honor my long-term goal and continue to excel in my education and leadership skills.
