Ayanda Bambiso – Top 40 Under 40

By

The Top 40 under 40 is a showcase of local business talent under the age of 40 compiled by the Nelson Mandela Bay Business Chamber (NMBBC).

Ayanda Bambiso (28), is the Marketing Manager of Umhlobo Wenene FM.

Ayanda Bambiso has held some high profile positions in her career – as Head of Protocol at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium during the FIFA 2010 World Cup, she was responsible for the planning and successful execution of airport and stadium operations for Heads of State, FIFA, SAFA and other foreign and local dignitaries.

Her stint as Public Relations and Entertainment Manager at the Boardwalk Casino and Entertainment World saw her bring in millions of Rands worth of PR exposure.

Now, as the Marketing Manager at Umhlobo Wenene FM, Bambiso is responsible for growing the brand of the second largest public broadcast station in South Africa. “I’ve always viewed Port Elizabeth as a city full of potential and promise,” says Bambiso.

“Here is where it all started for me; here is where I met the amazing people in various sectors of business who facilitate my growth and helped me to unlock my true potential. When the time comes for the captains of industry to pass on the baton, I will be ready.”
