Kaizer Chiefs marketing and commercial director Jessica Motaung is easily one of the most recognisable faces in the PSL, and in the spirit of Women's Month, here's a closer look at the accomplished executive.
The story
Celebrating her birthday this Tuesday, Motaung has a number of reasons to celebrate, having also recently graduated from the SuperSport Industry Leaders Programme as well.
Due to her countless achievements since taking over the marketing department of Amakhosi in 2007, the renowned businesswoman certainly deserves her flowers.

A boardroom giant!
While fans of the sport often see her in the press booth and the VIP section of the stadium during matches, Motaung is quite hands-on and interactive with the people who support the club.
Her recent graduation means that she added more skills to her artillery, as she now boasts expertise in fan experience, transformation, and broadcast. In May this year, she was also appointed as a part of CAF's Organising Committee for Women Football Standing Committee from 2022-2024.
While it is reported that she is an esteemed individual in corporate, she has now also advanced herself as one of the leading football administrators, a promising sign for women's football in the continent and hopefully South Africa as well.

According to Motaung's LinkedIn, one of her influences as a professional is none other than famous billionaire and innovator, Oprah Winfrey.
