Ula Cramer

Overview :

I am a self-motivated professional with decision-making proficiency and extensive Administrator experience. I am honest, quick learning and a hard worker with a great support system. I believe I will be an asset to your company with my extensive administration experience. I am also a single mom of a 12 year old son. Since being retrenched in August 2018, the past year and few months has been very difficult for me financially, so I decided to sell everything, pack the car and relocate to Cape Town in February 2020, in the hope of finding employment here, as this is where my son and I would like to settle and grow our lives together.
