Meet Gesina, Practise Manager at Thrive.
Gesina Schroeder, Claims Manager.
Hi, I’m Gesina!
I am Thrive’s Practice Manager and deal with claims, commissions and assisting with the finances of the business. When necessary, I also assist with training and any assistance required by the Advisers and the admin team.
Before moving to New Zealand, I was a Relationship Manager with a Financial Institution in South Africa for 42 years, looking after 80 businesses and assisting them with any banking needs and understanding their businesses. I worked through all departments within the bank and gained experience after completing my certificate in banking.
Although I am now working and living in New Zealand a number of my clients in SA is still in contact, due to the relationships I have build with them. The response of my clients in New Zealand is awesome and it is not just about what I do but the wellbeing of the individuals that I care about and this is evident from the numerous compliments I receive from the clients showing their appreciation.
In my spare time, I am an artist and have my own online art business. I also enjoy going to the gym and walking when I get the chance. I enjoy exercising and challenging my brain through quizzes and crossword puzzles.
What Gesina’s Clients Say
“The whole process of signing up and the dealings with Gesina and Pierre were absolutely phenomenal. They have a TPD insurance that has been a lifesaver for me as my payout will help me now that I cannot work again and will help with treatments. I do not have enough good words to say. Gesina is patient and kind and sincere and her and Pierre both have a lot of compassion for what we are going through.”
