Dudley Meyer
Cluster Residence Services Coordinator on Tygerberg campus
Dudley joined Residence Services in December 2009 as a Residence Service Coordinator after working for some years at SU Printing. With his calm, professional and friendly demeanour, colleagues, students and all other role players always feel comfortable contacting him whenever they need advice on work-related matters.
He was appointed as Cluster Residence Service Coordinator on 1 September 2024. Throughout his journey in our department, he showed consistency and an excellent work ethic, and he steered the ship at Tygerberg Campus. While embarking on his new interim role in 2022, Dudley stepped up without hesitation by implementing our latest best practice workstyle, ensuring that Tygerberg is aligned with our department, and overseeing a seamless operation at Tygerberg Campus.
He is always eager to assist and goes the extra mile. Dudley often asks: is there anything else I can help with? You can count on him to keep a cool head in a stressful situation, and his positive attitude is contagious. Dudley is one of the most dedicated, hardworking, and innovative people we have enjoyed working with in any capacity. The feedback received from internal stakeholders he works closely with is always positive.
He can tackle any challenge with integrity. His empathy towards others is remarkable. Recently, for example, when one of the outsourced cleaning staff members got ill, he did not hesitate to take the staff member to the hospital as there was no other transport from the company to seek medical attention.
We are truly thankful and fortunate to have Dudley as a valuable asset to our department.
