Greef continues flourishing
Amanda Greeff joined Alexforbes in 2006 as an assistant consultant and remained with the company for five years.
She then pursued another passion in the financial services industry and then rejoined the Alexforbes team in March 2019 as a retirement fund consultant.
Her main responsibilities include managing a team of consultants, managing a client portfolio, ensuring that the clients are retained, and growing the business.
"We provide guidance in terms of regulations, governance, investments and the general management of a fund," she said.
Challenges and opportunities
Greeff has seen great challenges and achievements in her career and at the fund. After evaluating possible challenges, she says one of the biggest is the Financial Institutions and Markets Act 2021 (FIMA). Seeing it become enacted with the new implementation of its regulations is a challenge she is preparing for. However, she considers the opportunity to manage, grow and lead her team as her greatest accomplishment.
Day at work
The retirement fund consultant says a typical day at work usually consists of client meetings, inter-departmental meetings, attending to client requests that may arise and assisting the team and the other departments with relevant roles. However, she has come to realise that her work days can be quite unpredictable and is eager to take on new tasks.
Greeff is inspired by the company culture created for employees and what the brand stands for.
"The impact that the company has made on my life is tremendous, and the support received from management and colleagues alike truly does reflect the core values," she said.
Additionally, she says that the best phase of her life was in 2017, after overcoming a number of obstacles and rising strong. "Tough times teach you lessons that nothing else can teach you," she said.
