I'm an eternal student, passionate about people and the secret ways of the mind. My family is important to me but I'm dedicated to forging a career for myself in Human Resource.
Show profile Hide profileI consider myself to be a hardworking and persevering individual. I successfully completed my BA Applied Psychology for the Professional Context with distinction last year while caring for my 2 young sons. Previously I obtained my Bachelor of Design in 2002 while living abroad in the Netherlands.
I am passionate about people and learning. My objective is to find a challenging and rewarding role within a company that will utilise my diversity of skills, education and experience as well as encourage me to grow and develop personally and professionally through continuous learning.
My key responsibilities during my 6 years working within fast paced order management environments for international companies such as Schweppes and Polycom lay in communication: liaising with my customers as well as the companies commercial, financial and logistics teams. I was responsible for capturing orders, ensuring a smooth process until delivery, invoicing and resolving any issues or complaints that may arise in between.
During this time I realised my potential for excellent interpersonal communication and my interest in how the minds of my co-workers and the business as a living organisation works and develops over time. This prompted me to register with UNISA for my BA in Psychology.
Currently I am working within the Human Resource department at Appletiser, putting to use my newly achieved Degree along with my previously obtained skills. I feel like I have found my calling and am enjoying every moment of my varied days. I provide HR related administrative and secretarial services as well as coordinating events and their long service achievement awards, researching and setting up a museum and reconciling of petty cash.
I communicate well with all. I have an outstanding aptitude for time management and organising. I am able to work well in both a team and individually. I have an open and positive attitude. I possess common sense, am adaptable and flexible. I am easy going and can handle working in a stressful environment. I have a desire to succeed at anything I set my mind to. I believe in possibilities and I eagerly await my next adventure. My steadfast, caring, empathic nature defines my character and will certainly be a good foundation for my work within the heart of your company.
