Celebrating dedication and commitment: Carmen Rossouw
Category General
This month we celebrate Carmen Rossouw's 8 years at Meridian Realty. Where did it all start? She joined the team back in 2013 as a one of our very first Virtual Private Assistants. With dedication and commitment she completed her NQF5 and is now a vital pillar with day to day operations as the Transaction Coordinator. There is no doubt that she has made her presence an invaluable one.
All of us at Meridian Realty congratulate Carmen on all her accomplishments thus far and wish her all the success to come.
