Project manager with telecoms, railway and electronics background.

I have Ten years’ experience in Telecoms, Electronics and Project Management. I have management experience at various level, technical, operational, project, business and strategic. I was exposed to various engineering principles, standards, governance, engineering acts, policies and professional code of conduct. I have also practiced financial management: procurement, sourcing strategies, budget and contract management, in line with the PFMA and internal financial governance frameworks. I am a dedicated hard work individual keen to develop and growth both academically and professionally, and passionate about adding value to the social and corporate responsibilities that we operate in an economically friendly environment. I am open to opportunities that lead in driving business into right direction, either through consultation, business analyst or strategic management; whereby the focus is to merely address socio-cultural constraints of unemployment, poverty and Inequality.

Pros: Projectised environment
Cons: Agile and digital environment?

Amazing experience in the Ports and Freight handling industry

Exposure to medium to large scale projects in the technology, infrastructure and bulk / port equipment environment. Managing a team within a projects structure and being able to utilize team members skills optimally to ensure business strategic focus is not lost. I have the skills to be able to communicate across all levels from the shop floor to executive and board level. I take much pride and personal interest in the role I play. I feel that I am making a difference in bringing what was once a thought, now come to life. See myself as a captain and coach, someone whom can be trusted whom values people's lives and their efforts.

Pros: Different types of projects and experience on large modern equipment and technology
Cons: may need to be working longer hours during critical phases in the project, but thats part of the excitement.

They give me good opportunity of life time to become a qualified Millwright

These jobs have awarded me with the opportunity to learn the importance of delivering exceptional service while working effectively and accurately in a fast paced service driven environment. I have electrical skills and I am able to communicate effectively with people from diverse backgrounds. I believe your company will serve as a great platform for me to implement all the expertise I have acquired in the past, and to also learn, develop and grow new skills within your organisation. I have the necessary enthusiasm, drive and motivation required to achieve your organisational goals. I know the dynamics of the advertised position can be strenuous and require me to put in extra hours when necessary and I am ready to take full advantage of this opportunity.

Pros: to became a Millwright,tutor are kindly, learning of different skills
Cons: stipend not in standard range

.

I work for an excellent company, i think it is one of the best companies to work for in South Africa. There are different learning on a day to day basis. My colleagues are of different race which for me is another learning because it enabled me to understand their culture as well as their methods of doing things, in my opinion no department is always smooth sailing, we have our differences now and again but we find ways to solve it and to maintain a good working environment.

Pros: The advantages of this position is that we have a chance to make positive change within the organization as well changing the mind set of employee's day by day. We go out and look for unsafe acts or behavior, identify risks and hazards making the working environment safer for our people. Making or having a positive impact on our people is a pro for me as it allows them a safe working mentality.
Cons: Personally for me the cons would be as mentioned in the pros the mindset of our employee's. Some employees think that because they have more work experience and have been doing a specific duty for a long period that is it safe, which in most cases is not true. People do not understand that the working environment keeps changing and enhancing which means our employees need to be trained more especially on the ground, it becomes a challenge to try and explain to them the safety side of it, some of our employees are willing to change and some are not, that is one of the cons in my situation, but day by day we will have to some how change that.
