Working on sales

Working on sales is veryu challenging , time bound, self individual driven and it is an ongoing changing business as market and economy changes, I really enjoy being challenged as it grow my mental capabilities as i deal with diofferent kind of clients with different needs that also change in time depending on the life cycle of an individual. I really enjoy working with people as part of the team helping one another to archieve one common goal. I have learned that without team work, one cannot archieve better results. Together we can do more than an individual that is tasked to complete a certain project on time and with the desired results. I enjoy my time at work when i have manageds to fullfill the client's needs and both the client and the company is happy. Archieving the target is the most challenging task at work ,as it requires constant perfomance with alternative solutions, planning and implimenting.

Pros: benefits of prime minus 2 and staff rates
Cons: constant changing environment leading to restructuring

Growth and development

My journey began with Absa Retail Bank Collections where I started as a Call Centre Agent, QA, Legal Typist for Absa Legal. Then I moved to being Receptioniat, then an Administrator for Absa Retail Collections. I then moved to being a Team Assistant for Absa Private Bank. I have learnt to network and work under pressure since Retail was such a big organisation. With Private Bank, I refined my skills since I networked with prominent upper market clients only. I have learnt to organise travelling bookings, organising and facililitating major events, liaising with stakegolders, procurement, logging IT queries and purchasing of items via SAP. I njoyed mostly working with the Bankers which I served and including both back office and front office. The most challenge was to keep up with new trends and being innovative in order to keep clients and and co workers happy and ensuring everything is within policy. I also learnt bringing more leads to the Bank.

Pros: great opportunity for growth and development and networking and relating
Cons: working under pressure
