Karene has extensive experience in Receptionist, Secretary and Office Administration, and is very professional in her work ethics. She ensures that the necessary structures are in place so that the organisation will continue successfully, without being dependent upon her.

Karene forms close relationships with Clients (internal/external), and it is in her nature to care deeply that all objectives and tasks are successful completed whether internal or external, and that the result will be in the interests of the organisation. I am a self-starter and eager to learn. I am a team player, loyal and a very dedicated worker. It is in my nature to strive to achieve the goals and values of my employer. EMPLOYMENT HISTORY
