Our team
Carli Burger
Deputy Director
Carli started at Claim Victory in 2017, after 5 years of working as a social worker in the Cape Town community. She joined the Claim Victory team, because she wanted to add value to the social projects we were currently supporting at the time, but also to establish new programs to ensure Claim Victory continues to have a positive impact on South Africa communities.
Today, Carli is still involved with all the social projects and helps future volunteers with all the assistance they require. She is also in charge of finances.
In her personal time, Carli loves to do painting, creating arts and crafts, and also spending time with her 4-year-old son.
Carli also spends her free time volunteering as a counselor for trauma cases, and any other community work.
Christiaan Bezuidenhout
Marketing Manager
Christiaan started at Claim Victory in 2015 shortly after completing his marketing studies. He soon discovered his passion for wildlife conservation and wanted to identify ways to get more people involved.
He also launched the tour operator side of Claim Victory after completing his tourist guiding qualifications. His aim is to offer authentic experiences to travellers from all over the world while making a difference in Africa’s local communities and environment.
Christiaan also takes care of all marketing-related responsibilities and will be the friendly person you will communicate with when making your bookings.
On a personal note, Christiaan loves all sports, especially football. His favourite club is Liverpool FC and he has been supporting them since he was in Primary school.
Andrea Schröder
Social Media
Andrea volunteered with Claim Victory back in 2018 in South Africa and Namibia.
She returned to South Africa in 2019 to enjoy one of our tour packages with her mother, when she realised that she wanted to be more involved.
Today, she manages all the Social Media aspects of Claim Victory, with her biggest passion being for the animals.
Craig Lubbe
Transport
Claim Victory has been working with Craig since 2018. He is a very friendly, outgoing, and generous person who you will meet in Cape Town.
He will meet you at the airport on arrival day, and also drop you off the day you depart. He also runs his own taxi business, should you need a trusted provider during your free time.
