Excellent experience on various different plants.

Working with different Managers on different projects has taught me how to deal with and handle different personalities. Handling the risk control aspect of projects from the packing and transportation of material and equipment to establishing site and thereafter proceeding with the commencement of work has been my responsibility for the last 5.5 years. Each project has been a new challenge andoit comes with its hurdles that have to be dealt with and overcome swiftly and professionally, but sometimes is not the case due to management not providing the necessary support needed. Apart from that i love what I do and always strive to create a harmonious work environment.

Pros: The knowledge and experience gained is priceless
Cons: Working seven days a week and away from home on occasion

Volatile fast paced environment

Company core working hours are from 7:30 to 16:30. I usually clock in at 6:30. Evaluate my work for the day, then start working (Designing and completing drawings, liaising with engineers, attend meetings). As the day progresses, and if I am under pressure, I usually try and provide my superiors on the progress of my current tasks. I usually try and make use of tea times(10am and 15:00pm @15min) and lunch time (13:15pm @30min) for coffee breaks and eating. On a normal day I would work until 17:00 – 18 : 00pm. This would be a typical day.

Pros: fair learning opportunity
Cons: Long working hours. Constant Pressure.

Oppertunity

Constant Pressure that I can handle. you need to get parts manufactured, you must get the drawing yourself and take to works planning.Customers order parts you pic your self. Invoicing, ordering of spares, create your own orders, do followup. send orders oversea to export customers.make sure to get the export documents. do all the administrative duties in our department. I have a good working relation with co-workers,just very irritated due to their laziness. I like the challenges that every day is different and I'm kept busy constantly.

Pros: close to home
Cons: None
