Gill joined the Trust in 1993 when Mary Rose, the founder of the organisation, was Executive Director. The Siyazisiza Trust was relatively new having started in 1987 and back then it operated in impoverished rural areas of northern KwaZulu-Natal with very poor infrastructure – where, if roads existed they were untarred, there was no electricity or access to piped water and no access to formal markets.
Although involved in many areas of management, Gill has concentrated primarily on finance. She is currently the Acting Finance & Administration Director with the financial management of the Trust her chief responsibility.
Gill is also a member of the Board of Trustees in an ex-officio capacity, helping to manage the administration requirements of the Board.
