Gordon started his career as a Municipal Manager – indeed, the youngest in the role – in the North Coast. Unfortunately so effective was he, that when called in to sort out the finances of the Ulundi Municipality, and needing to fire the debtors department, he was put on a hit list. He left, farmed citrus in Richmond, and then entered the corporate world in the forestry industry.
During this time he made his way through a string of qualifications – diplomas such as the National Diploma in Company Administration, then in Public Management, then Financial Management, and then the Executive Leadership Development Programme through the UKZN.
