Viola Thuso Hape

With over 20 years of experience of working in the quality department within different sectors, I’m a strategic and assertive leader who is enthusiastic to cease an opportunity to learn, grow and succeed with my team to be productive and achieve the set KPI’s.

Over the years, I have acquired unique analytical and problem-solving skills which enable me to investigate, articulate and solve problems by making factual decisions based on available information. I've worked with different quality and safety standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 17025, ISO14001 & 45001, IATF 16949, VDA 6.3 in different sectors such as mining, manufacturing, and commercial laboratories in South Africa.

Therefore, I’m highly organized, flexible, and able to quickly adjust to any work environment.
