Excellent growth and learning
I manage a department of 22 employees. I oversee all training for the organisation Nationally and abroad. I effectively manage relationship internally at General Management Level and Director level as well as externally. I ensure systems are implemented to monitor and track training within organisation ensuring legislative requirements regarding to training is adhered to and implemented. I identify the training needs and trends and propose a action plan to address the gap. I'm involved with the training strategy in developing and fully responsible for implementing. I enjoyed all the success I had in the role one of it being establishing a learning academy. The most challenging part of my role was gaining trust in the department from stakeholders due to my predeceases short comings. This has turned, the value and respect for training is positively accepted by stakeholders

Great learning experience
My day at work is busy, put through applications for debt review of clients. Working proposals sent by debt counselors and processing any other correspondence from their offices. Requesting outstanding documents & payments from the debt counselor. We all work well together. We are all fun, but we work hard at the same time. I learned how easily it is for people to be consumed with debt. How to manage clients and debt counselors. That some people just live above their means. I have learned how to work and control my own expenses. Management is very supportive and works with us. Makes us feel as equals and considers our input and suggestions. Hardest part of the job is when clients goods gets repossessed. Most enjoyable part of the job is meeting deadlines on collections & completing the daily work before scheduled time.
Pros: The experience i built
Cons: Growth is limited

Training manager
Healthy working relationship with colleagues, I learnt to be assertive as nothing will happen when you always compromise. I established good relations with Branch managers as well whilst I was coaching and mentoring them. Good environment over all but it gets tiring as the job becomes monotonous.
Pros: No growth opportunity
Cons: Always be prepared for anything as operations will be on you way
