Summary
I have worked as an ofÞce manager for well over 10 years and am very computer literate. For 2 years I was chairman of a 40 unit townhouse complex and single handedly ran all responsibilities of running and maintaining the complex so can easily adapt, problem solve and remain level headed in a crisis. I am meticulous and hard working. I get along easily with others but able to work independently too. I grasp new skills easily. My communication skills are excellent. I have a strong work ethic, am reliable and trustworthy. I have been on the committees of many interest groups over the years including GNoR BIG (Gauteng and Northern Regions Bat Interest Group) and ESSA (Exploration Society of Southern Africa) as their secretary. During lockdown I have spent the my time upskilling in website design, html and Wordpress, bookkeeping and advancing my Microsoft excel skills. Skill Highlights
