WhosOff proving so popular globally, it's being championed from South Africa to Australia!
Find out how Marileze Buys has relocated from South Africa to Australia and found WhosOff to be so "fantastic" it has been implemented within the new workforce, and has been well received.

When you have a leave platform implemented within your organisation and it proves to be so invaluble, if you relocate employment, or even country, would it be one of the first things you consider when starting your new role?

Marileze Buys, General Manager, The Jane Goodall Institute Australia

This was the case for Marileze Buys, after she relocated from South Africa to Australia and started a new position as General Manager (Operations and Programs) at The Jane Goodall Institute Australia. Here Marileze explains how WhosOff has proven again to be the preferred leave management solution after a move from a charity in South Africa to a small not-for-profit organisation in Australia.


First using WhosOff back in 2009

WhosOff is a fantastic management system that has provided many benefits since we first used it in 2009 for a not-for-profit organisation.

"As a former manager of a charity in South Africa, I initially implemented WhosOff to streamline our leave management process. Little did I know that this system would become an invaluble tool as our organisation grew from a small to large not-for-profit"
Says Marileze

WhosOff consistently proved to be an efficient and user-friendly solution and is suitable for organisations of all sizes.

"It's intuitive interface allowed our staff to easily request and manage their leave, thereby reducing administrative burden and increasing productivity"
continues Marileze

The system provided us with real-time insights into our teams availability, enabling us to plan effectively and ensure smooth operations.


Relocation from South Africa to Australia

I recently relocated to Australia to work for a not-for-profit that focuses on conservation in Africa, and when I needed to upgrade our leave management system, I had no hesitation in reaching out to WhosOff once again.

Their willingness to provide the support involved in order to roll out the system to our charity speaks volumes about their commitment to supporting organisations like ours, all over the world.

Their generous offer of support, guidance and openess will allow the not-for-profit that I am working for to effectively manage leave for our growing team, thereby freeing up valuble resources that can be directed towards our conservation efforts.

"Thank you WhosOff, for your outstanding support over the years. You have been an indispensable asset that has proved a seamless, efficient and scalable solution for leave management."
Marileze concludes

Good news is always well received

We always love to hear from our customers, we always try to find time to listen as we learn so much hearing how WhosOff is/has reduce any burden on daily working stress.


"It's always a pleasure to hear feedback from our global user base, especially when it's such positive news such as we received from Marileze"
Reg Groombridge [Founder and Director, WhosOff.com]

Thank you, Marileze

From the team at WhosOff, we wish you all the very best after your relocation and look forward to catching up soon!.
