HR Business Partnering at SARB

Typical day as a Business Partner at the South African Reserve Bank Partnering with business to ensure that they meet their operational and strategic objectives. Typical day requires a lot around stakeholder management. Daily interaction with co-workers take place within the Centre of excellence. Relationship is a professional that revolves around respecting and supporting each other. Challenging in that most people have not worked elsewhere either than in the Bank. I mostly enjoy the consultative part with the line partners where the work involve requires my input on the core aspects of HR business partnering. Most challenging is getting line managers to understand that their roles are not just about operations and deliverables in that space, but largely about managing people and building collaborative teams that understand why their roles exist and how they best contribute to achieving the goals of division, department and Bank wide.

Pros: Support of HR initiatives
Cons: Absence of forward thining culture

Excelling development opportunities

A very strict and controlled environment with protocol. Development and training driven environment. Rapid changing industry influenced by international best practice. So one has to keep abreast with international changes in standards. My days are filled with coaching and mentoring of colleagues and dealing with operational activities. Our internal audit department is filled with a positive and friendly culture where staff members are open to share information with one another, always learning from each other through various forums. Lessons learnt and what i enjoy - different business operations and keeping up with the central banking landscape changes. Being adaptable to new changes and organisational transformation. Challenges - keeping up with the rapid changes and expectations from the market.

Pros: Learning opportunities
Cons: highly legislated

I have 10 years experience in management (Assistant section head)

I have 10 years experience in management (Assistant section head), and negotiating joint ventures with authorised institutions. I was a member of the Department’s BRICS panel (5 partner countries)where we brokered trading rules, analysed contracts and set up the nostro accounts for multinational trading. This was done in a volatile financial market with different countries policies governing their currencies settlement instructions. Another major ongoing joint venture where I was a key member is the Gold trading agreements between the Bank, Rand Refinery and the SA Mint Co. I was tasked with monitoring and instructing business partners to regularly adjust asset holdings. I have rotated through various sections (including Internal Control) and I have gained valuable knowledge regarding the economic relationship between government and National treasury.

Pros: GOOD SALARY
Cons: GOOD WORK RELATIONS
