Summary

I am an energetic and positive worker with a passion for driving positive impact through culture and diversity. Throughout my career I have extensive experience in Internal and External (White Collar and more recently Blue Collar) Recruitment both in Australia and South Africa. I am a dedicated and faithful team member who demonstrates the ability to multi-task with excellent time management skills. One of my strengths is working within a team environment and contribute to a good environment by my sense of humour and commitment to the team. Also thrive on working independently to get the work done and happy to put in extra hours if need be. Definitely have a “Can-Do” attitude and always thrive to deliver a friendly yet professional service. Thoroughly enjoy working in a busy environment.
