I enjoy working with other people as I am a team player

Since moving into the audit space, I have learnt the importance of team work since audit is all about team work. One audit opinion from work done by a big team.. I normally start my day by planning tasks I need to finish on the day. I then look at my calendar to ensure that I am aware what time are my meetings. I always try to prepare as best as I can for the meetings. I enjoy the technical discussions with my colleagues as I believe a lot of learning takes place during such discussions.. The most challenging aspect about my work is when I do not get information from the client or the information is provided very late

Pros: Great opportunity for learning and development
Cons: Long hours

Excellent learning curves and challenges

On a day to day I oversee the trainees. Review the work performed, allocate work as well as to provide guidance when called. I am a very patient and easy to get along with person who finds fulfilment in assisting others. I have learnt to be more of a all rounder in terms of sections of the audit I’ve been responsible for. I’ve learnt people management . I enjoy working with others, learning new things and being in new ZA. What has challenged me is having to manage a large number of people in share space of time and keep track of my progress at the same time. I’ve learnt a lot in the process.

Pros: Broad experience in different areas such as AFS, performance information and compliance
Cons: Long working hours for a number of months

Focus on growing people

The company offer excellent growth opportunities. This includes various development initiatives. Also all ideas are welcome and I feel I have a voice although sometimes risk averse in exploring risky ideas with huge payoff potential. The job can be demanding with long hours which can impact time with family.

Pros: Opportunities for growth
Cons: Long work hours
