Good

Meetings - with teams or productions Scheduling work for coming weeks Update SAP Generate/ Update Plans Undated tasks lists as per work order requests Notifications & work order analysis & turn over Attend to plant issue & requests Generate PR's & follow up on outstanding orders Generate & Analyze KPI's & reports Assist with contractors & plant Conduct/Lead improvement, RCFA & investigations sessions. I have an excellent relationship with all operators, artisans, foreman & managers. It is very important because it is a service I am providing and the relationship should be healthy I do have a vast knowledge of the plant & technical knowledge of electrical, planning reliability and projects. What I enjoy most is when you implement new plans or improvements in plant and it improve the reliability and availability in the plant Most challenging aspect is when planned work is not completed and then breakdowns follow soon. Aspect that we are working on to improve.

Pros: Stable company with good benifits
Cons: Gold market unstable

Excellent career start point.

The relationship with colleagues is the best, it’s a second family. Getting up to go to work is not a misery because of the great working relationship and the focus of one goal of a team to improve and optimize processes whilst delivering products to customers on time. Being pushed out of my comfort zone is really a challenge but it really made me grow both personally and professionally. I have full admiration for the supportive, collaborative team-mates with an amazing, positive and hilarious team leaders.

Pros: Development opprotunities
Cons: Working all week for long hours

I'm always willing to learn more within the company and make use of a great opportunity.

I'm a very hard working person. I have a great relationship with my co-workers and team. I've always learn to listen before I react on any decisions I make. I enjoy working with a team that works hard and want to achieve the same goal as all. Most challenging I would say is to fail as a team and not getting any targets complete.

Pros: Getting a promotion
Cons: Long hours
