Curriculum Vitae

Dear Sir/Madam,

With over 15 years of professional experience spanning corporate and educational domains, I have garnered a wealth of expertise, including more than a decade in managerial roles. Since 2017, my primary focus has been in the realm of education, where I have held diverse roles such as lecturer, teacher, academic manager, curriculum coordinator, and head of department. My instructional strengths encompass English, Language Acquisition, Business Management, and Humanities, and I've adeptly navigated various curriculums, including Cambridge, The International Baccalaureate, and LGR 11/22.

Throughout my tenure, collaboration with school staff has been integral to my responsibilities, encompassing oversight of evaluations, employee recruitment, parent open days, pastoral care, and general communication with staff, parents, and students. As a registered teacher with an up-to-date teaching license, I have actively engaged in professional development workshops to leverage my extensive experience from both the education and corporate sectors in shaping my future pursuits.

My educational foundation includes a pre-law (LLB) from NWU, a Summa Cum Laude Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree from Purdue University with a GPA of 4.0, an MBA from BEBS where I graduated as valedictorian, and an MIM (Masters in Innovation and Management) from UCAV. In 2020, I was honored with induction into The Society for Collegiate Leadership & Achievement. Presently, I am pursuing a Ph.D. on a part-time basis.

In my quest for a new challenge, I am eager to contribute to a role that allows for the advancement of my career, drawing on my past leadership and management experiences. As a creative, caring, and knowledgeable professional with a genuine passion for both business and education, I have successfully led teams of over 200, thriving in dynamic, effective, and diverse leadership environments.

Sincerely,

Ettian Edward Du Plessis
