Background

About Dawn Bolitho

I have spent over 20 years as an Executive PA, currently to the Executive Head: Nedbank Group Financial Crime, Forensics and Security. I arrange conferences for over 225 people including sleeping over arrangements for 2 nights, a gala dinner, bus transportation to and from the venue. CEO dinners/lunches for approximately 200 pax as well as exhibitions when required (at my previous company, Kentz Engineers & Construction). Being an Executive PA in the Forensic department, I need to maintain a high level of confidentiality, constantly monitor the EH’s emails and deal with those as necessary, alert her to the high priority ones and ensure meeting requests are included in the diary for those deemed necessary for her to attend. Her overseas and local travel arrangements are completed with inclusion of a detailed agenda including when, where, means of transport, timing, visas, hotel accommodation, forex, etc. I have been told that the agenda has constantly been spot on and she easily follows all detail included. I have an excellent knowledge of all MS programmes, Visio, CRM, Diligent and others, certificates are available on request. I am currently studying for my Executive assistant diploma (NQF 7).
