Vongani  Khosa CA(SA)

Vongani Khosa CA(SA)

Centurion,Gauteng

Summary

Over my life, I have learnt many lessons such as how to look at and think about the world, how to navigate different personalities & cultural
backgrounds, how to work in a collective setting and how to work
systematically to achieve all my goals.


I am a qualified CA(SA) with good technical skill and knowledge. Now
more than 6 years into my career, I have attained pervasive and soft
skills. My experience was built on a varied portfolio of clients focused on
Statistics collection, transport, health (NHS -England) and local
government and Insurance entities (Aon and subsidiaries). My role on
these engagements included directly interacting with client management at which I'm astute.


I have a burning desire to take on new challenges that comes my way. I
am able, ready and willing. I am very flexible and have a dynamic
personality. I enjoy networking with people and discussing new ideas. I
am a goal-oriented person who respects deadlines. I am willing to do whatever it takes to meet the objectives of my team.
