Work Review

working for supply chain in mining industry, customer service orientation on both external and internal customers. accuracy and timeous processing of customer contracts including understanding of different commodities is critical. Negotiation with customers relating to contract adjustments can be challenging as we will not always see eye to eye but at the end of the day a good relationship have to be established and maintained.

Pros: good cooporate culture
Cons: long working hours

Commodity Specialist

I enjoy the challenges. Each day is new . Managing labour issues brings in a dynamic that I had not experienced in all my other roles. My most challenging aspect is the involvement of AMCU in all my transactions. This means that I have to always bear that in mind before I make a decision.

Pros: neverending challenges
Cons: Union disruption to project progress

Amazing experience opportunity to with a vast array of different disciplines.

Typical drawing office workflow: Manager gives you or ask for an update on my current listed projects on a daily basis. Hands me a file with a brief description of work to be done and contact person (client). I arrange a site visit and collect all necessary info and measurements. Get back to the office and start working on the projects and also gives manager a time estimate. Using the necessary catalogues and standards as per the company and SABS. Once the drawings are finished they are given to the senior draughtsperson for checking, and if approved is sent to the client for comments. When comments are attended to the drawing gets issued for approval. Once approved the drawing gets issued for construction. The project file gets time allocations indicated and handed to the documents controllers for filing. Then the cycle repeats.

Pros: mining working experience like no other
Cons: Slow to train employees, lacking in necessary measuring equipment.
