Louisa Basson
Residence Manager
As the Residence Manager at Burgers Park Student Hotel, my top priority is creating a warm, welcoming, and well-organized environment where both students and staff feel supported. I believe that a residence should be more than just a place to stay—it should be a space that feels like a second home.
My door is always open, and I’m passionate about building a culture rooted in teamwork, respect, and genuine care. Whether it’s resolving a concern, celebrating small wins, or simply being present for a chat, I’m here to foster strong relationships and a positive living experience for everyone.
Together, we’re not just running a residence—we’re building a thriving, supportive community where every individual feels seen, heard, and valued.

Elanri Dreyer
Res Executive
Hallooooo, I’m Elanri, the Residence Executive at Burgers Park Student Hotel. My role is to oversee the entire operation—from the day-to-day running of the building to the long-term vision of what this space means to our students and our team. I work closely with every department, every person, and every process to ensure that our residence functions not just efficiently, but meaningfully.
I often say, “The buck stops with me” especially when the 💩 hits the fan —and I mean it. When something goes wrong, I take full responsibility. When things go right, I share the rewards with the incredible team that makes it happen. I lead with heart, purpose, and a fierce belief in creating an environment that doesn’t just house students, but supports them, challenges them, and helps them grow.
To me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a calling. I care deeply about our students’ well-being, their academic journeys, and the memories they build within these walls. I also care about our staff—about building a team culture that’s grounded in respect, empowerment, and shared pride in the work we do.
I can't wait to meet you! APPLY NOW
