Diva Pitch: JobCrystal

Head of Agency

13h00 - 13h25

Wanita is a talent trailblazer and opportunity architect who has spent her career reimagining how people and jobs find each other. As Director and Co-Founder of Job Crystal, she co-leads the business, blending deep recruitment expertise with Job Crystal's AI-powered hiring technology to drive the company's mission of making a meaningful dent in unemployment through smarter, more human-centred hiring.


Her journey began at Ernst & Young, where she spent over a decade managing finance resourcing for the firm's non-audit clients, before founding and running her own niche recruitment agency, Platinum People Recruitment, for close to nine years. She holds a Bachelor of Business Science in Personnel Management from the University of Cape Town.


Wanita's story is one of constant reinvention, from building an agency from the ground up to championing AI as a force multiplier for recruiters rather than a replacement for human judgement. #makingadentinunemployment
