About

Professional summary

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented professional with over 10 years of experience in administration, financial management, client relations, compliance, and governance support. Throughout my career, I have developed strong skills in reporting, debt recovery, stakeholder engagement, and contractor coordination. I pride myself on my problem-solving abilities and my capacity to handle multiple responsibilities while meeting deadlines and delivering accurate results with integrity.

I have managed financial and operational functions across multiple properties, implemented billing and recovery processes that reduced arrears, and coordinated budgets, audits, and reserve funds to strengthen sustainability. My experience also includes overseeing maintenance projects and insurance claims to minimize risks, as well as facilitating meetings and governance reporting for trustees and clients.

In previous roles, I have supported compliance and legal dispute resolutions, managed contractor projects and building inspections, and assisted trustees with budget planning and financial reporting. I am proficient in MS Office Suite and various accounting software including WeConnectU, Quickbooks, Pastel, and Zoho Books.

I am fluent in both Afrikaans and English, which has helped me build strong communication and interpersonal skills, especially through daily interactions with clients and stakeholders. I am currently pursuing an amended senior certificate and a TEFL certification to further enhance my qualifications.

I am a hardworking individual with strong values of honesty and commitment. I adapt quickly to new environments and responsibilities and am seeking an opportunity where I can apply my skills, grow within an organization, and prove myself as a valuable asset to your team.
