I r me!

I am a General Project Manager and New Business Developer. Avo pays me to look good so until I figure out how to achieve this I will keep myself occupied doing real work. My focus is on identifying alternate business avenues and then implementing an operational plan to turn an idea into a profitable business.

I have previously applied my services in the FMCG, Prepaid airtime, debt collections and lottery industries and have a special love for setting up and managing call centre environments.

I am introverted by nature and definitely not a conformist.

My 5 year old son is convinced that I am Superman (hmmm…I wonder who gave him that idea!)

Most summer weekends are spent on the river in a rubber boat, sometimes fishing and sometimes snoozing. I spend my ‘quiet time” riding my motorbike which is also where I do most of my brainstorming and strategy planning.

I pride myself on being a quality human being and have promised myself to always be surrounded by quality people. Having recently joined Avo and quietly observed the team, I think I may have just found my Eden.

    Bilaal… when Andre said that he’d nabbed you, i remembered once again what a clever man he is!

    Not once during lotto, did I imagine that we would be sitting on the same couch, eating cashew nuts…working on a bid together. It’s delightful and it feels right… and there is so much we can learn from you! I look forward to the work we will do in future… and we agree with your son, superheroes were exactly what we were looking for.

    Welcome aboard!
