Excellent learing curve

I am a professional with strong interpersonal, finance and administration skills. My key role has been based on finance, collection of monies, accounts liaison and effective drive of business strategies. In my line of work, I am exposed to working independently and jointly with other professionals developing cordial relationships with professionals that lead to successful billing and collections. As an effective communicator who is detail oriented and strategic, I am currently employed as a Debtors Supervisor. I have managed to make an impact in my current position, proven in my promotion at Abacus after being in a temp position for three months. I bring with me a wealth of knowledge and experience in the highly competitive and difficult home loans environment. I will be an invaluable asset to any organisation that chooses to employ me.

Pros: Great opportunity or promotion
Cons: Not to be appreciated

Great opportunities

I have learnt a lot from the company coming from a sales department and was keen on learning other departments, I ended up working for Debtors division. My duties consist of sending monthly billing report via e-mail to the employers e.g Pick n Pay Retailers, Shoprite Checkers etc I would pull the bank statement for the previous day and start reconciling the payments received. All non payment will be queried with the employer and the client. An arrangement will be done to collect extra for the arrears or restructure the loan. We usually share the work in the Debtors team and assist one another, I have learnt a lot from debtors by doing restructure calculations and to process death claims. I enjoy interacting with my team, clients, employers and the fund companies. In my job, the most challenging aspect is you need to be deadline driven and am currently enjoying doing my work.

Pros: Having to learn everyday
Cons: None

Learning to become a manager

Working at Abacus is a challenge on its own, every morning I make sure that the environment is running as it should by running a few simple tests. working for a small company lets you interact with colleagues a lot easier and my relationship with my colleagues is excellent, This is my first time managing a team and I have learnt a lot since I have started working at Abacus, the fact that I 'm responsible of making sure that the systems are working at 100% capacity and that I'm in charge makes me love my job even more. I have been currently appointed as acting New Business manager and I have never done sales before so that comes with its own challenges but it is a great opportunity as I'm enjoying the role.

Pros: Great opportunity to become a CIO
Cons: You need to be available at all times even on weekends.

Openess Culture adobted by managers

Working environment is very good, staff supportive and management has adopted an open attitude. Everybody knows whats going om in the company if we making profits or not or whats working and whats not. When you wake up to work you look forward in the new day and what new ways to use to curb your challenges. Its a nice environment where you meet new people everyday with different challenges and how you help them pass through that. The most rewarding moment is when a client recognises your efforts and commitment and how they become greatful of that.

Pros: there is a room for improvement in your skills by providing workshops and skills training
Cons: you are limited even if you want to push and work afternoons and weekends.
