Annelie van der Merwe

Founder of Padkaart Careers

Hi! I’m Annelie. I’m a career coach with a real love for helping people find work they enjoy. I’ve spent over ten years guiding school leavers and professionals in the Helderberg area. I started Padkaart Careers in Somerset West.

Diversity of Experiences

Before starting Padkaart Careers, Annelie worked in human resources at a Stellenbosch wine estate group and later as a student counsellor at a Cape Town college. She is active in local school and business forums in the Helderberg. Most recently, she led career guidance programmes for Grade 11 and 12 learners across the Western Cape. After working with her, 9 out of 10 clients said they felt clearer about their next step.

I’ve since focused my time on making coaching easier to reach. In 2019 I launched my Career Discovery course, which has become one of our most popular courses for Grade 11 and 12 learners. I was also a finalist in the Helderberg Small Business Awards 2025.

Career Guidance

I’ve spent years working out what really helps people choose a career with confidence, and I’m glad to finally share that experience with you.
I can honestly say that our coaching is practical, clear and built around the real South African job market.
