CHARLEEN

Director

​

Director and Finance and Accounting lead; Charleen is a business woman with heart, drive and an uncanny nous for numbers. Originating from Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa and having studied and worked in London, Charleen made the move to NZ. 

 

Joining EJP in 2013 she has played a key role in navigating the ever competitive landscape of the New Zealand furniture business. “To compete with the ever-growing imported furniture, you can imagine margins in this business are slim, volume is key and margin for error is virtually zero. And that’s what I love about it.” Charleen’s role demands a fine balance between financial and operational smarts teamed with multidimensional strategic management.
