A day in the life at Nedbank Group Marketing
- A typical day in Nedbank's Group Marketing Digital team (the team that my function sits within) includes a series of the morning to early afternoon meetings (08:30 - 14:00). - All of my co-workers including myself are new, we are still learning about our roles and responsibilities and how they relate to us as individuals. I have brilliant co-workers though and we all come from different disciplines and industries that can lend itself to the overall brand of the bank. - What I've learned so far in my short while at Nedbank is the absolute importance of communication, resilience, and patience. - I enjoy working within the "green" bank - a bank that advocates sustainability and community building in South Africa. - One major challenge that's been difficult to manage is the lack of support from senior management, severe lack of structure, dysfunctional reigns, severe lack of workplace culture and poor unconstructive communication.
Pros: Great brand
Cons: Lack of leadership, bad culture, personal values do not align with company values

Financial planning is exciting and also extremely stressful. There is always pressure to perform.
My job is fun, as the team is very vibrant. I look forward to going to work for that reason. The work on it's own is very stressful yet exciting at the same time. It requires good time management skills and also you need to be extremely effective in your communication.
Pros: Great opportunity to make lots of money
Cons: Long working hours and continuously need to be able to know your clients portfolios and needs which are different from client to client.

Learning organisation
I would like to work for a company that is considerate of home/work life balance and values people and encourages people to learn through creativity. My company is doing well in that regard and it is quite very difficult to leave the organisation of this calibre in fear of the different culture. However, as a person you need to grow and explore new challenges in order to grow.
Pros: Reward and Recognition
Cons: Inflexibility

Excellent learning curve
Current job daily is taking calls,emails directly from clients and serving them coming up with solutions and product specialist, transferring client to relevant departments under switchboard. Assist private bankers and professional banking clientele. Use different systems to access client details, time capturing, adhering to schedule and monthly proficiency tests. What I like about it is the team spirit everyone has to help each other with complex queries. I have learnt to work under enormous stress and pressure. Working under pressure is the most challenging thing for me.
Pros: Staff rate
