Meet the Afro Ant HQ Team

My favourite Ant fact is that Ants are tiny but strong and powerful, they are able to lift ten times their body weight.

Lisa Tinkoe - Finance Manager

My favourite Ant fact is that ants are very social insects, and they divide jobs among different types of ants in each colony.

Sam Stone - HR Manager

My favourite Ant fact is how impressively these little guys communicate, and to think, Ants don’t even have the luxury of speech! They still manage to get their message across through scent, body language, touch and sound. Reminds us how important good communication is for healthy teamwork and as a life skill, in general.

Pavi Pillay - Managing Director

My favourite fact about Ants is that Ants will enslave other ants, keeping them captive and making them do work for the colony. (Should we be worried? 🙂 )

Devina Lamb - Payroll Manager

My favourite fact about Ants is that some ants form “supercolonies,” massive communities of ants that can stretch for thousands of miles.

Lyndsey Parsons - Junior Recruitment Consultant

Ants survive because they prioritize the colony over the individual. The strength of the colony doesn’t come from one powerful ant, but from collective effort, mutual reliance, and deep respect for one another. What truly makes a colony strong is a culture built on collaboration, dignity, and care for one another — where every contribution matters and success is shared.

Juné Kruger - Recruitment & HR Resourcer

My favourite Ant fact is that you can use ants as stitches – by letting them bite you around the wound, pulling their bodies away and leaving the heads stuck in your arm – but you really shouldn’t!

Ross Assure - Head of Talent

My favourite fact about Ants is that they form a superorganism where they function together and accomplish amazing feats as part of a collective whole, doing what is best for the colony.
