Sikho Mtuntuto

Having graduated with a double major in Geology and GIS, I have acquired valuable work expertise in both sectors. I can provide strategic assistance in adhering to environmental laws and managing a business's total environmental impact. I also have a knack for creating, processing and analysing maps, as well as managing geographical and non-geographical data.

I am results focused, service oriented and highly motivated. I require little to no monitoring when executing tasks. I can work in a fast-paced environment, whilst maintaining deadlines. I persist on clear and fluent communication, (written and spoken), ensuring that stakeholders are always well-informed and engaged in project developments.
