A great environment to work in

A typical day involves starting with preparation to present to to the daily standing plant meeting about performance of the department and any challenges or things we require from other sections and vice versa. After that is a daily 15 min with my team redirecting the focus to meet our customers needs. Next is to close out all the tasks that we set out for the previous day. Run quickly through our daily layered audits and checks and verification. Close out all campaigns. Set out new goals for the day and the week. Prepapare for weekly/biweekly/monthly plant meetings like APQP, PPAP, TQM, Safely and making sure we are on track for what we need to do when we have to report on progress of the projects to the plant. Later check on daily progress and set goals for afternoon and night shift.

Pros: Great place to grow with challenging pressure
Cons: Long working hours and regular call outs which I did get used to and enjoyed.

Good working place

It's very friendly company. It teaches you things that you thought you'll never know. I only have grade 12, but now I know how to work with chemical, how to check pH, concentration and the viscosity of a waistcoat. I know how to monitor a line.

Pros: Gives experience
Cons: Stand for long

Time to grow and step up

I believe that there should be a good relationship between operators and office employees. I spend about 50% on the floor and 50 spend on paper work that need to be completed. I have a good relationship with all my co workers and work very well together. During my 5 years at Umicore I have learnt how to run and manage several projects at the same time to make improvements. To work with team people has made a big difference and very help full Reaching my goals of saving money and implementing new work procedures is my highlight of working as a senior IE. Convincing people for changes is the most difficult part of my job.

Pros: Opportunity to grow
Cons: Hours could be long
