I am a professional, performance driven individual and believe that integrity is an essential component of the professional work ethic. I also strive to empower the people I work with, with the knowledge and experience I have gained during my career… Within the context of my role, I see Effective Communication, Outstanding Service and the effective use of Information Technology between Stores, Merchants and Suppliers as an integral component to the sustainability and success of businesses. I believe that I am an innovative and an analytical thinker with good judgement, whilst being mindful of the “Bigger Picture”. I show attention to detail and although planning and organising skills are central to my method of operation I am adaptable and decisive to decision-making. I envisage my career path in merchant buying, as this is where I am well versed. The positions I have been exposed to have also afforded me the opportunity to grow and develop in these fields. In my current capacity as Assistant buyer, I ensure maximum profitability of my Division/ Chain through focus on business drivers: i.e. - customer service - generation of turnover.
