My Story: Leigh Pennington-Jones
Senior CV Writer and our ATS / AI specialist
​
My passion for writing started at a young age when I wrote and illustrated short stories for friends and family. However, my career took me in a different direction, and I spent over 15 years working at a senior level within top-tier financial services institutions before returning to my love of writing.
Drawing on my corporate experience, I focus on CV and LinkedIn optimisation, helping my clients secure their next opportunity. I am a specialist in ATS (Application Tracking Systems) and AI (Artificial Intelligence), detail-orientated and deadline driven – consistently putting my client's needs at the forefront of every interaction.
Originally from the UK, I spent 10 years in Ballito, KZN, returning to the UK in 2020 with my South African husband, two young boys, and a much-loved family dog.
