MR Superintendent Rock Engineering

The company has initiatives which focus on my individual growth, and inclusivity. In the short time since I joined Samancor, the company has already included me in a Middle Management Development Programme which will nurture and enhance my leadership skills.  I am also surrounded by an impactful group of individuals daily, particularly the team I work with. Although there is a lot of work pressure due to the role I occupy, working at Samancor has afforded me the opportunity to maintain a reasonable level of “work-life balance” which I have not been able to achieve for a long time in my career. I look forward to more growth, resolving challenges and opportunities.

The culture of promoting safety in the organization is prioritized. Management provided me with the freedom to create a way of working that work best to me and the team to better productivity. I love the fact that the manager is not micro-managing and management style is persevering. However, working to this company enforces the lead a way rule in having ownership on showcasing your expertise. Therefore, I foresee personal and professional growth in the organization.
