Profile Summary

After completion of my senior certificate, I spent a year as Administration Assistant at New Era Developments in

Polokwane. At New Era Developments, a small business, I gained valuable experience in general office

administration, diary coordination, meeting scheduling and general commercial processes.

After I had to put a hold on my studies due to financial restraints, I started work as receptionist at Mikes Kitchen’s

Head office in Bryanston, which added to my experience, as my duties included switchboard, data capturing, filing

and typing. Although I excelled at Mikes Kitchen, my future looked bleak as I had no option or room for growth;

therefore I started contract work at Mehleketo Resourcing as Admin Assistant where we upgraded the 3kV power line

from Sishen to Saldanah to 50kV. We stayed in lodges and moved along the power line as our work moved forward,

which adds to the fact that I am very flexible and willing to put a lot of effort, even when the circumstances aren’t

exactly convenient.

With that contract expiring, I decided to start a career in the Health and Safety field, and therefore I started a series of

courses at NOSA Klerksdorp.

I relocated to Durban after completion of my Health and Safety training and started my career in Safety at Wayne’s

Electrical, where our main focus in the petrochemical industry is electrical installation and maintenance. I was

originally employed as Health and Safety Administrator at the Head office situated in Durban, and worked closely

with the Director designing and implementing the health and safety system. My duties included coordinating safety

on a national level, implementation of safety systems and all record keeping.

The company then relocated me to Gauteng, as the need for this arose. I relocated to Pretoria and served as Health

During this time my responsibilities per branch included:
