Grace De Kock
Finance: Tax specialist
I joined OUP in 2012 as a contract data capturer in the Sales and Marketing department. In 2014, I transitioned to an administrative assistant role within the same department. By December 2014, I secured a permanent position in the Customer Services department as a Customer Services Representative. A year later, in December 2015, I moved to the Finance department to take on the role of Creditors Administrator. After five years in this position, I became the Tax Administrator and was recently promoted to Tax Specialist, the role I currently hold.
Before joining OUP, I had two family members working there. We often heard wonderful stories about the company and how great it was to work there. At that time, I was still very young in my career journey and when I decided to join OUP, I fell in love with their mission statement and grew a love and passion for education.
OUP has offered me numerous opportunities, including bursaries and further education. I am currently studying for a Bachelor of Commerce in Financial Management, which will significantly impact my professional growth. If you are passionate about education and making a difference in people’s lives by providing the best educational resources, then OUP is the place for you.
