Already an asset

I am a young and developing Chemical Engineer and studying towards my national diploma and completed fourth level (S4) At the University of South Africa in 2012. Previously I was an Assistant Metallurgist at Glencore Eland platinum Mine. I set very high standards for myself and the people around me. I am much focused on accomplishing tasks, but very aware of the necessity of teamwork to accomplish results. I consider myself a very hardworking; leader and I value integrity and honesty. Although I am very result driven, my strong people skills and focus on building effective relationships in the work context, will make an excellent asset for any organisation. I am willing to learn, work hard and do whatever it will take to follow a successful career in any company. I am motivated by challenges and I work well under pressure. I am well organized and good at handling and presenting data, I also have good communication skills with a good command in English.

Pros: Career Development
Cons: working hours

Good learning curve, and new programmes learnt

A typical workday is mainly daily orders, but most orders are on breakdown so your day is really hectic, because if production stands it costs the mine money. Long working hours from 6am to 4Pm I have gained a lot of new knowledge on new systems used for procurement. Most challenging is to get materials and stock on the mine as in Yesterday because of breakdowns

Pros: Good company Good salary
Cons: Retrenchment possibilities and also no promotion possibilities, long working hours and the travelling

Excellent leaning curve

I most enjoy the company of my colleagues. I don not like the fact that we get bonus once a year . I am motivated to work due to the experience given in the field I am working on. I have learnt to manage time, and keep good working record through listening when rebuked or advised. My expertise in this field have grown because of daily work. A typical work day is when you build a panel(direct on line) to control a pump or maintain grinders e.g changing motor brushes if damaged. The most challenging this is that you make certain every day you grow since its a field in which it demands accuracy and attention.

Pros: good for working
Cons: long hours
