Before commencing with Vicki Philipoff Settlements in 2003 Amanda completed a business college course in the legal secretarial administration area. This course enabled her to easily take on all the roles associated with conveyancing.

Amanda has been with Vicki Philipoff Settlements for over 12 years. Amanda started with us as an Outside Clerk/receptionist attending settlements externally, and she then moved to working internally as a Trainee Conveyancer, and progressed to a Conveyancer position.

When we recognized the need to create a Data Entry and Document Preparation Department to streamline our organization in , Amanda was offered the position of heading up the department for us.  Amanda managed approximately 12 staff members for 5 years , and was responsible for developing and implementing new administrative systems and procedures and ensured the smooth running of the department.

In early 2015, Amanda decided to venture out into a new role and took on our Executive Administrator role.  Amanda is responsible for allocating the settlements we receive via email and Australia Post to our Conveyancers and for processing all of our Revenue on Line with the Department of Finance.   With over 500 transactions each and every month, her keen eye for attention to detail is a critical aspect of her role as Executive Administrator.
