About me

I am a dynamic and self-motivated individual with a wealth of transferable skills gained in the manufacturing and supply sector. I possess a strong commitment to delivering customer service excellence and have built a reputation for ensuring complete customer satisfaction. Over the years, I have developed expertise in managing daily operations, planning, and leading teams to achieve operational goals. I am experienced in negotiating purchases with suppliers and ensuring compliance with company policies and health and safety regulations.

In my current role as a Branch Manager at SA Metal Group, I oversee all branch operations, lead my team to meet operational requirements, and maintain excellent customer relations. I ensure that materials are accurately classified, graded, and weighed according to company policies. Previously, I have held various supervisory and managerial roles in the ready-mix concrete and manufacturing industries, where I managed production processes, quality assurance, and stock control.

I am skilled in designing and implementing training programs, maintaining health and safety standards, and ensuring continuous on-the-job training for staff. My experience also includes monitoring batching accuracy, assisting with employment equity, and enforcing strict safety guidelines. I am adaptable, able to work under pressure, and have strong leadership and decision-making skills.

I am currently based in Eerste rivier, Western Cape, South Africa, and am willing to relocate anywhere. I am eager to bring my expertise in operations management and customer service to a challenging new role where I can contribute to organizational success and continue my professional growth.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated the ability to manage complex production environments, optimize resource use, and maintain high standards of quality and safety. I am confident that my background and skills make me a valuable asset to any team focused on operational excellence and customer satisfaction.
