Meet the Team: Mia Williams

We are thrilled to introduce Mia, one of the shining stars at CiMSO Business Solutions. Mia was born in the vibrant town of Fish Hoek in 2001 and has become a vital part of our team as the Office Administrator. Her journey to CiMSO is a testament to perseverance, adaptability, and passion.

After matriculating in 2019, Mia pursued public relations, event planning, and wedding planning studies. Just before completing her course, the COVID-19 pandemic struck, leaving her without job opportunities as public gatherings were no longer allowed. Mia can’t recall how she ended up at CiMSO, as she doesn’t remember applying for the position. “Fun fact: To this day, I have no idea how I ended up at CiMSO Business Solutions because I cannot remember ever applying for this position. It was God’s plan all along,” she shares.

Upon receiving a call from Lana for an interview, Mia felt nervous but reassured after recognizing a familiar face, Hanle van Niekerk, when she arrived. Despite her initial lack of experience, her second interview with Johan, Lana, Pieter, and Brenda was pivotal. “As soon as Pieter introduced himself and spoke about the Godly values here at CiMSO, my heart knew that this was where I had to be,” Mia recalls. Her passion for numbers and fast-paced environments led her to study Practical Bookkeeping through UNISA to further her career at CiMSO.

Mia’s Key Achievements

Mia’s role as an Office Administrator is crucial in ensuring our company operates smoothly. Her key achievements include gaining the trust of colleagues and clients with significant admin and finance responsibilities, organizing successful staff events, and mentoring coworkers. “Working with colleagues and clients who entrust me with big admin/finance responsibilities, staff/client information, and client contracts is meaningful to me,” Mia notes. One notable accomplishment is finalizing a platform that ensures the monthly D/Order and client information runs as a “smooth operation” without relying on manual spreadsheets, showcasing her ability to innovate and improve efficiency.

Outside of Work

Mia’s life outside of work is just as vibrant. She is passionate about singing and enjoys performing at social events and drama productions. “Singing and acting teaches me the balance of life,” she explains. These passions allow her to blend her professional world with her love for the arts. Mia also enjoys playing hockey whenever she gets the chance.

Future Goals and Insights

Looking ahead, Mia dreams of becoming an Accountant or Financial Controller. She advises her past self and aspiring professionals: “Don’t wait until you’ve reached your goal to be proud of yourself. Be proud of every step you take towards reaching that goal. Live in the moment and enjoy the ups (the successes) and the downs (the growth).”

We are incredibly proud of Mia’s journey and accomplishments at CiMSO Business Solutions. Her dedication, passion, and positive outlook make her a valued team member. Stay tuned for more inspiring stories from our fantastic team members!
