Shweta Viren Luckan

My name is Shweta Viren Luckan and I am a Law Graduate. 

I have completed my Bachelor of Laws (LLB) degree with nineteen distinctions through the University of South Africa (UNISA). I am currently studying for my Charted Secretary qualification through the Charted Governance Institute of South Africa (CGISA).

I am currently working at Motion F (Pty) Ltd. which is a specialized procurement company. I work in the Administrative and Tender department.

My job description in the Administrative department includes liaising with customers telephonically and in-person, cold calling, setting up meetings with existing and potential clients, documentation and filing of documents and tax invoices, researching and providing feedback on various topics, ensuring that the company's CSD, TCS, and BEE Certificates are valid and up to date as well as applying to various supplier database systems.

My job description in the Tender department includes finding new and applicable tenders, responding to our clients RFQ's, sourcing and procuring the best available quotes, compiling, and emailing quotations to clients, filling in tender documents, and compiling the required information before sending them off via email or alternatively I travel to the drop-off locations to deposit the tenders.

I also provide weekly reports to management, and I have presented on the Protection of Private Information Act (POPIA) and Risk and Compliance to the executive teams. I am fully proficient in Microsoft Office: Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint presentations.

I describe myself as a friendly, honest, and articulate person who is used to working under pressure and managing an intense workload. I believe that studying through UNISA has aided me in developing my time management skills and prioritizing my tasks. It has further enabled me to work independently and give projects the attention it deserves whilst meeting deadlines.

My interests outside of law and work include hiking, reading, and participating in religious organisations. I am not an athletic person, but I have grown to participate in activities such as hiking to get out of my comfort zone and be adventurous. I completed a 15km hike up Mount Rochelle, Cape Town in 2020 and recently did a 10km hike at Cradle Moon Lakeside Game Lodge.

I am a well-rounded applicant as opposed to a purely academic one. My drive, ambition, and ability to work well under pressure with anyone is what sets me apart from others. I am always eager to learn new things, assist colleagues, and be more efficient in all aspects.

My plans after completing my law articles are to start studying toward my Master of Laws (LLM) in Corporate Law. I hope to one day become a Risk and Compliance Officer and since I am new to the legal field it is amazing to know that I have so many options available to me which is exactly why I chose to pursue a career in Law.
