Eskom Pension And Provident Fund Reviews

 

Excellent full financial function capabilities

I am currently a Management Accountant at Eskom Pension & Provident Fund. I have worked in the Asset management industry from 2006 and have the knowledge of all its daily functions from the administration of funds to producing financial statements. I have had the opportunity to understand how underlying instruments are calculated as well as quick solutions to issues when they arise. This has allowed me to increase my skills analytically as well as allowing me to use the systems to problem solve in reasonable time with deadlines met. I have assumed many leadership roles through school, college, sports and now in the work environment. I am currently studying my post grad in Bcomm Accounting and am going to further my studies with adding CTA next year and CFA thereafter. I am a good planner, motivator and driver, qualities required to get my team to meet the expectations of business. I take ownership for the work allocated to me and complete all functions to the best of my ability.

Pros: Great leadership skills
Cons: Long working hours

Good numerical skills

I have good numerical skills, and I am able perform manual calculations without the reliance of the system in order to check accuracy. I had the best manager and my team that reported to me was the best. We had difficulties working with some other departments since they did not understand what we do. We held several training sessions to try and make them understand but still when it came to reality they were not very good team players. Our Exec did not show that they believe in the vision of the company. There were things that were done which did not follow the policies of the company. Like the other time the CEO sent an email saying that everyone was going to get 5% salary increase and my performance that year was very good and ended up being valued together with some of my colleagues that we all knew that they did not pull their weight.

Pros: Great manager
Cons: Managers do not sing from the same hymn sheet

Excellent learning curve

I look forward to transcribing the decision taken either at Board or Management level. A lot of transaction depends on the resolutions taken at these meeting, therefore, this requires a lot of attention to details and have taught a high level of professionalism. I always look forward to ensure that both Board and Management Committee are equipped accurately to enable them execute their fiduciary duties and to ensure that the Board and its Committee were aware of the compliance universe. I have learnt to be a person of ethics due to our department being "governance watchdogs"

Pros: Great opportunity for growth
Cons: Long working hours
