Bongeka Memela

I am a dedicated and experienced professional with over 6 years of combined experience in the maritime, logistics, and administrative sectors. I have worked across reputable organizations such as the South African Sugar Association, Evergreen Shipping Agency, Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), and Bidfreight Port Operations (BPO), gaining in-depth knowledge in export logistics, shipping operations, intermodal coordination, and compliance management.

My academic foundation includes a Postgraduate Diploma in Maritime Law & Studies from the University of KwaZulu-Natal, and I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Commerce Honours in Economics through UNISA (on hold). This has equipped me with both technical and analytical skills, allowing me to navigate complex international trade processes with confidence and efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strengths in export documentation, container management, vendor negotiations, team leadership, and risk compliance. I am proficient in systems such as SAP, Shipment Online, Navis, SCADA, SharePoint, and Excel.

I am passionate about continuous learning, committed to operational excellence, and always open to new challenges — even outside of my current expertise. I am currently seeking new opportunities where I can contribute meaningfully while continuing to grow professionally.
