Over the years, my involvement in revenue collection at Zambia Revenue Authority and community related work with such organizations as World Vision Zambia, Society for Family Health (SFH), and Ministry of Education has given me the much needed experience and capacity to work professionally and contribute to maximization of revenue collection for the Authority. I am currently working for Zambia Revenue Authority as Collector based at Headquarters under Audit and Business Risk Unit in Customs Services Division. based. I have also worked at Ndola Office (Ndola CPC) and Kasumbalesa border for over four years in the same capacity. My experience at the three stations has broadened my understanding of customs work. During the course of my work I have been able to coordinate, supervise work and track progress against targets and ensure compliance as regards revenue collection.
