I thoroughly enjoyed interviewing Chris whom I found to be extremely well presented
and spoken, having matriculated from Outeniqua School he is fluent in English and
Afrikaans and comes with a wealth of skills in the sales and financial sector. Chris has
also prided himself on his continuous and ongoing education and has completed his
RE1 Exam, FAIS, a higher certificate in Insurance and NQF 5 financial Planning
He has a number of accolades to his name not just from a sporting perspective but in
business including Newcomer Performance Club. Chris prides himself on his people,
sales, financial and marketing skills. He strives to achieve targets and objectives set out
for him. One area that he is extremely strong is discipline. Chris is an all-rounder and is
suitable for various markets such as financial, banking, insurance, sales, marketing,

management and the retail sector.
Chris is looking to earn a more stable income as he is married and looking to start a
family – this will however not deter him from achieving targets and working diligently as
he has done in the past. He is negotiable on his salary and would be available after
negotiating his notice period.
