Lilian Mwanangulu
HR Assistant
I joined SECTION27 on 11 May 2015. I have recently been promoted to HR Assistant
I look after everyone and ensure we work in a happy and clean environment. I also keep the ship running, i.e. I make sure we have coffee.
I stick around because there are some really cool people working here, who are saving the world one soul at a time, and it’s great to be a part of that team.
Before I joined SECTION27, I worked at CARE International as a Research Assistant where I did work in TB, HIV/AIDS and the ARV roll out in different provinces. I am the mother to two lovely children whom I love very much and I am currently studying to be an accountant.
