Challenging working environment
As Processing Manager I start off early in the morning, between 06h00 and 07h00 am, review the previous shift’s production achievement and finalize the plan for the day. At 09h00 am I attend an ops meeting where I give feedback on production performances, waste, overtime and other critical issues on the KPIs. I manage just under 400 employees who are strongly unionized, we have very good working relationship and issues are resolved through dialogue but sometimes disciplinary actions are taken against those who does not comply. The working environment is challenging and enjoyable as I work with a very diverse team and the fact that it is a very fast moving fresh products – we make today for tomorrow into stores!
Pros: Recognition
Cons: Far from home

A day is well spent with colleague's. Good work relationship with colleagues. I have learned time management and coping with pressure. I enjoy working with all stakeholders which broaden my thinking. I enjoyed giving advice's on the OHSAct and legal compliancy The most challenging part is as follows: The job is so stranous emotional draining with a lot of reports to write and a lot of interruptions and a lot of documents and reviews and a lot of follow-up meetings.
Pros: Team building, company offer free meal
Cons: No annual bonus, long hour no overtime

Change is the only constant
No planning can be done for the day as your become a firefighter - co -workers do not know the scope of their duties and need help most times. I have however learnt to be much more patient as our systems are always slow. Having a salary Customer complaints and systems errors become a daily challenge
Pros: I get my daily loaf of bread
Cons: dealing with fires everyday

Got to make use of professional CoEs in areas of change management, employee relations and reards
A very good company which was acquired by RCL from Foodcorp. After the acquisition, some roles became redundant. The company really offered growth and potential to branch out of ones role.
Pros: The company had professional support structures (C0Es)

It's a repetition of what i basically did at my previous job.
A typical day at work involves capturing invoices and credit notes from our bakery at Nelspruit. I liaise with different personnel there based on the suppliers that they deal with. My relationship with my coworkers is a professional one. I try not meddle in people's personal affairs. Our main purpose is to achieve our objectives and meet them in the best effective and efficient manner possible. I have learnt to be very patient. Suppliers can be very rude and difficult at times. the trick is to be patient, listen to them and generate solutions to make sure that they happy again and continue supplying their services to us. I enjoy the flexibility, i can choose what time to get in and what time to leave, as long as i have worked my 8 hours and i have achieved my objectives for the day.
Pros: closer to home.
Cons: No promotion structure.
