Technical Skills, Tools & Professional Experience
I am an experienced Business Operations and Executive Support professional with well over 10 years’ experience supporting CEOs, founders, executives, and senior management across corporate, medium-sized, and small businesses.
My technical skills include Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, ClickUp, Slack, Notion, DocuSign, with experience using SAP, Navision, and SunSystems in business and financial administration environments. I use ChatGPT and AI tools for research, analysis, problem-solving, information structuring, and developing practical solutions, while independently verifying important information.
My professional experience includes executive and administrative support, business administration, project coordination, operational processes, workflow and task management, reporting, stakeholder communication, travel coordination, vendor coordination, invoice and payment administration, budgets, reconciliations, and document management.
I have experience working with confidential information and sensitive business matters, requiring discretion, accuracy, and sound judgement. I am comfortable coordinating across different stakeholders, managing competing priorities, and working independently in remote and distributed environments.
My approach combines organisation with critical thinking and problem-solving. I am comfortable researching unfamiliar topics, learning new systems and processes, identifying inconsistencies or risks, and turning requirements into structured actions. I particularly enjoy roles that require me to bring structure to complex or evolving objectives and ensure that actions progress to completion.
I also have experience supporting governance, risk, and compliance-related reporting, including working within structured policies and procedures and applying principles such as the PFMA, Treasury Regulations, and King IV in relevant professional environments.
