REASON FOR WANTING TO LEAVE
The company premises have relocated to 0lifanstfontein which is a round trip of 170km daily, so I wish to work closer to home.
I would also like to develop my other strengths, thus I am not necessarily looking for a Warehouse Management position, I would like to utilise my intellect and energy in other spheres such as Sales Support, Procurement, Office Manager, Credit Control or Customer Service. This is where my personality and people skills will prove most useful.
