Leadership
I am a fast learner and very dedicated to my job. I am trustworthy and rational.
I sign on for my flight, I check on the teams compliance and documentation. I supervise, liaise with the flight deck crew. I do administration such as paperwork report on issues to be dealt with by management. I interact and give solution to passengers queries. Back at base I give a full report per flight. The most challenging part of my job is limited resources on board the aircraft at 30000 feet and one has to explain and apologize to the passenger about a television set that is not functional and can only be fixed by engineers on the ground
Pros: being able to think on your feet and offer a solution to a problem.
Cons: long hours and working on weekends and holidays.

Growing as an individual
i had a very good relationship with my co workers and my managers. we worked as a team and if we completed our work before schedule , we world assist the other teams. Growing our people in the company was key - we would always be teaching new members the skills we have acquired over the years . I love the aviation industry and planes are my passion, l enjoy the feeling of having a plane i worked on come back with no issues. Challenges will be short staff at the company , trying to get the job completed by deadline without the man power.
Pros: great opportunity for growth
Cons: too many night shifts

Sourcing Specialist Working Experience
My experience at SAA has been dynamic. The pressure as a Sourcing Specialist made me to grow and take accountability in many aspects. The daily job included to plan my day and head the CFST as well as the whole tender process whereby at any given time there were approximately 7 to 9 projects that were at different staged of the tender process. I learned to the importance of team work with my co-workers as we assisted each other more especially on tender briefing days were we made arrangements to collects potential bidders at the main gate while I concentrated on the briefing session. I enjoyed the level of being put into complete control of my projects and having to overcome the pressure that came with the level of responsibility. The challenges that came with my position was the high level of Bureaucracy which impeded in the approvals and day to day runnings of the projects. I have learned to juggle projects, Analytical skills, decision making skills, time keeping and prioritizing my work.
Pros: Independant working environment
Cons: Bearacracy
