I am writing to express my interest in a Personal Assistant, Executive Secretary, or Office Administration role within your organisation. With over 30 years of hands-on experience supporting Directors and General Managers across multiple industries, I bring a proven ability to keep operations running smoothly, professionally, and efficiently.
My career spans executive PA support, diary and calendar management, bookkeeping, travel coordination, document control, and stakeholder liaison. I am proficient in Pastel, Zoho, Microsoft Word, and Excel, and I am known for being organised, discreet, and reliable under pressure. Whether managing a busy executive's schedule or coordinating complex logistics, I take ownership and get things done.
A brief note on my recent career path: in 2021, following the severe impact of the global pandemic on my South African photography business, I made a deliberate decision to relocate to Mauritius to pursue an investment opportunity in a bicycle hire venture. After several years I disinvested from the business and returned to South Africa, where I am now fully available and ready to commit to a permanent role. During my time in Mauritius I continued to work in PA and administrative roles, most recently as PA to the General Manager at D.A.Y Marine Land and Coastal Surveying Ltd, where I managed calendars, coordinated meetings, handled correspondence, and supported day-to-day operations.
I am now based in Durban, and available immediately. I am looking for a role where I can bring my full range of administrative and executive support skills to a team that values precision, professionalism, and initiative. I am confident I will make a positive and immediate contribution.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience aligns with your requirements. Please feel free to contact me at your convenience.
Yours sincerely,
+27 72 979 7416 (available from 1 April 2025)
I've had over 15 years experience.
