Good learning curve

The experience I've had on my current employer is that it is co workers are the people that keep you going, care and willing to share information and teach. On a day to day basis work load is not as I anticipated, but would look for something to keep me busy. work gets challenging sometimes but okay. Working with different people in different areas, working long hours leaving office late to finish targets.

Pros: ability to rotate to different department for knowlegde
Cons: No promotion opportunities

Environment and sustainability management for Transnet Freight Rail

I receive different scales of projects proposals for environment and sustainability input. I review project proposals and obtain clear project scope. I conduct environmental screening and check for triggers requiring permitting and authorisations. Where required I provide requirements for Environmental Management Plan (EMP) and Evaluations Criteria to Supply Chain Services Department. I evaluate the EMP submitted for proposed works and score bidders accordingly using an evaluation criteria. I develop a comprehensive Environment and Social Governance report specific to the scope of the project and. I develop a specific Sustainability Design Criteria Report which includes Sustainability Objectives and Sustainability Key Performance Indicators for the project. I support the implementation of ISO 14001 into business processes.

Excellent learning curve

Typical work date is not predictable, yet structured. Co workers are professional, a wealth of knowledge, understands company vision, mandate as well as policies an procedures. Team work is King and brings a sense of family, unity and trust. I've learned the structure of the organization and the role myself and my team plays in the bigger picture. Also how the production line works between the various stakeholders. I enjoy being given a target working towards achieving it with the team and the joy and exciting when we do achieve it in spite of challenges and difficulty. The most challenging aspects of my job is bad weather and acts of God that is beyond human control which effects our targets.

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Long working hours
