Virtual Assistant
Throughout my professional journey spanning over the past 13 years, I have had the privilege of evolving within the dynamic landscape of the automotive and corporate services industry. My career commenced in 2010 when I joined Missy Dillon as a Sales Representative, embarking on a fulfilling journey that allowed me to build lasting relationships with distinguished clients such as Garden City Commercial, MAN Automotive, Key Delta, Hino and Truck Centre Durban. My responsibilities extended to serving both corporate and individual customers, specializing in the sale of seat covers and floor mats for trucks and vehicles, and furniture upholstery services.
In 2014, I embraced a pivotal role in the organization as I assumed the administrative and financial responsibilities for Missy Dillon, along with the companies Afriknife and Leakmasters, both conveniently situated within the same office park. This transition brought forth a multifaceted role encompassing diverse tasks, including call management, invoicing, generating quotations, overseeing payroll, and engaging with our valued clients.
However, the most significant turning point in my career occurred in March 2019, when the founder of Missy Dillon passed away. In a momentous step, my two brothers and I assumed leadership roles, and I took the reins as the Financial Director. This transition marked a profound shift, one that empowered me to take on greater responsibilities and steer the company toward new horizons.
My professional journey is a testament to my dedication, adaptability, and the strong relationships I have built over the years. As I continue to embrace new challenges and opportunities, I am excited to contribute my experience and expertise to future endeavors, fostering growth and success in the corporate landscape.
