Excellent 15 years retail experience
Currently I am not employed, Edcon is the last company I worked for which I left 2011 working for myself. Now I am eager to continue my field in retail. The salary I put was the salary I was getting in 2011 as store manager. Currently I am studying LLB with Unisa. I still am very passionate about retail and I would bring a lot of skill to the company. I worked very well with my team, line managers and regional team. I am very influential in system discipline, visual merchandise and stores layout plans. I am a good teacher of the succession plans and always eager to learn new things Thank you
Pros: Retail gives good succession for eager staff
Cons: Holiday working which I am used to
