Self-Assessment
I am a passionate, energetic and hands-on individual, who strives under pressure in driving multi-skilled teams to cost-effectively deliver the best possible customer experience, within the requirement of any organization’s forward mission and vision.
I have more than 15 years’ experience in Logistics Environments including FMCG, High-End Customer electronics, Automotive and Information Technology sectors. During this period, I was involved in a considerable amount of successful engagements within the African continent, offering a variety of Logistics services (amongst others, Warehousing, Transportation, Reverse Logistics, 3&4PL). My personal belief of Fair but Firm opened an interest in the IR Process wherein I have had involvement in numerous IR matters.
I have successfully managed a multidiscipline Logistics Facility, holding stock of upwards of R 50 million with an almost negligible unexplained loss.
During the last 7 years as an operations manager has allowed being a part of the supply chain processes involving international organization based in the United States and EMEA. I strongly believe my career thus far has been characterized by commitment, willingness to learn and growth within organizations, across different sectors of business. As the globe faces a pandemic, I embrace with great anticipation the positive changes required for the logistics function to be a part of a new customer experience. Education and training
