Melissa Pretorius

Please allow me to highlight my skills as they relate to a high performing, hands-on manager.

• Over twenty years experience effectively supporting executive level.
• Efficient management and preparation of correspondence and communications.
• In depth collection, analysis and integration of information.
• Complex scheduling and organizing of meetings, appointments and travel arrangements.
• Proven success in the development and implementation of improved administrative processes.
• A reputation as a self-directed worker who uses her initiative to get the job done in a fast-paced work environment with demanding deadlines.

Even while managing a team of ten, I found the time to study and put into practice what I was learning about what it truly means to be a professional assistant. This course has not only given me the confidence in what I do every day, but it also lets me know I can bring my skill set to assist and contribute to the company if given the opportunity.

I am meticulous about organisation and keep records of all processes to ensure I am always transparent and accountable. I am efficient, vigilant and approachable and am always striving for more innovative ways of doing my job and contributing to overall company efficiencies. I’m a detailed Assistant, well-known for pushing limits and getting things done, and having amazing energy to handle any tasks, and a turnkey solutions provider who consistently earns the confidence and praise of clients and peers alike through outstanding service and operational excellence.

Thank you for taking the time to review my cover letter, resume and qualifications, and I look forward to discussing the opportunity further.

Sincerely,

Melissa Pretorius
