Grow experience

I have a degree in supply chain management and Economics. At msunduzi municipality we offer services to the city of pietermaritzburg and ensure that the services are delivered to the right people. I was working as buyer where I had to select the right suppliers to offer the services to the community and to the company. I was also creating orders and ensuring that suppliers are being paid on time. I was ensuring that the right product are delivered on the right time, quality, and quantity. I also worked 3 months at stores while doing my internship in supply chain management. The company is as government owned so they gain the funds from government budgets and make money from community members when paying for water and electricity. Mostly suppliers were suppliers doing construction, such as infrastructure development, housing, and maintenance.

Pros: Experience
Cons: None

A place for change

The most challenging aspect of the position is change management. getting individuals and management to think outside the box and notice that there is a better way of doing the same task that saves time and increases productivity. A typical day would consist of compiling reports as well as purchasing functions. Supervision of staff and projects. External communication with suppliers and contractors.

Pros: Great opportunity to learn
Cons: Slow progression
