Senior fractional and interim executive, with a specialism in hospitality consulting.

Rykie has spent two decades leading senior hospitality operations across the Cape. She brings a clear head, a steady hand, and the composure of someone who has quietly seen most of it before.

From interim leadership to full turnarounds, she brings steady, senior direction wherever it's needed.

Liezel Delport

Executive Chaos Coordinator.

Ask Liezel what she actually does, and she'll tell you: "Everything except the actual breathing."

For eighteen years, Liezel has turned demanding schedules and endless moving parts into calm, working order, with genuine hands-on skill and a healthy sense of humour throughout.

Real Experience. Real Relationships.

Rykie, Liezel and Norma's paths first crossed years ago, across well-known Cape Winelands wine and hospitality estates, including Boschendal, Grande Provence and Laborie. Along the way, they built a genuine friendship and a shared understanding of what it takes to run a business well. OpsHQ brings that shared experience, and that friendship, to every client they work with.
