Words describing Gemma: Organised, Attention to Detail, Strategic, Goal Orientated, Team Player, Sporty
Gemma’s journey into the world of finance started with a Bachelor’s in Accounting Sciences, but her story quickly became anything but textbook. After a thrilling stint at Investec Bank, where she became a master navigator of financial seas, Gemma embarked on a 6-year adventure at Standard Bank. There, she was the architect of financial insights that spanned continents, from the bustling streets of the US to the vibrant markets of China.
But when lockdown hit, Gemma didn’t just crunch numbers from home—she became the Chief Financial Officer at Cyber1, leading them through the maze of reconstruction. With her financial wizardry, Gemma automated processes faster than you could say “balance sheet,” and laid down financial controls sturdy enough to weather any storm.
Now, Gemma’s swapped the city hustle for the serene landscapes of the Eastern Cape. Here, she’s found the perfect balance between family life and her financial feats. Whether she’s wrangling spreadsheets or wrangling her family for quality time, Gemma brings a treasure trove of experience in financial processing, management, and forecasting.
And when Gemma isn’t crunching numbers or chasing after her young ones, you’ll find her at the starting line of an Ironman 70.3, fuelled by determination and maybe a dash of adrenaline. Or, if puzzles are more her speed, she’ll be at the dining room table, piecing together the next great mystery—or just catching up with friends over a cup of coffee. Gemma’s life is as dynamic as her spreadsheets, and she wouldn’t have it any other way!
