Ms. Matlawa started her career as an engineer, with various companies in the Engineering Consulting, Petrochemical, Manufacturing and Energy Sector. Her experience was mainly in the Operations discipline as Line Engineer up to Line and Section Manager.
After 15 years in the Engineering Sector, Mamiki joined the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) in 2011 as a Project Manager responsible for Project Development of minimum investment value of R300 mil. She then left 2 years later to pursue opportunities in the Renewable Energy Sector as an independent, whilst also the Managing Director of the Greater Alexandra Chamber of Commerce and Industry, which worked with Small Medium Enterprises in the Greater Alexandra area.
In 2015, Mamiki joined Hudaco Ltd as part of the Executive Development and left 18 months later to join EOH, in the Business Process Outsourcing Division as a Business Development Executive responsible for building Human Capital Solutions business for the Energy Sector until she joined Qunu Staffing as the Managing Director in July 2018.

Mamiki is an avid outdoorswoman, taking part in running, golf and hiking, which is rather interesting seeing as she spent majority her adult life and school years doing absolutely nothing in terms of physical activity. She plans to definitely complete at least one Comrades before long (she’ll never forgive herself if she doesn’t) and would like to summit Mt Kilimanjaro.
