PA of the Year 2021 goes to Elzaan Snyman of Sanlam

Elzaan Snyman, PA at Sanlam in the Cape, was awarded the prestigious title of South Africa’s PA of the Year 2021 on Secretaries Day, Wednesday 1st September. She received the accolade at a hybrid event organized by the Professional Association for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants (PAFSA) at Hotel Sky in Sandton.

Organizers of the Award say that this recognition is critical both for the incumbents of any profession, as well as for the profession itself. Any profession, and the secretarial one is no different, enjoys and benefits of being recognized for the role it plays in the market space, but the professionals themselves benefit far more from the recognition and praise because they will ensure the survival of that profession and its evolution.
In South Africa, the PA of the Year Award clearly sets standards; raises standards and elevates the excellence bar of the secretarial and Admin profession.
The event was a historic one as it was partly online and partly present at Sky Hotel and was broadcast on various social media platforms simultaneously having reached a wide global audience.
PAFSA thanks all the sponsors for their support.
