Summary

I started working in 2004 for Burma Plant Hire as a workshop assistant and admin clerk from there I worked my way up to Parts manager of which I was responsible for 5 branches as well as our branch in Namibia over the course of 8 years. I was Parts Manager for Burma Plant Hire for 5 years after which I was retrenched.
When i left Burma I started my own retail business for 2 years as well starting at Anzi Plant Hire & Mining after the first year helping with admin and various office tasks. After 2 years I had to choose between my own business and continuing with Anzi Plant Hire & Mining and decide to close my own business and continue working for Anzi as an Admin up until December 2021 when I was also retrenched because the company closed its WC branch and I was not willing to move to JHB.Currently im working at MAB Fusion Plant Rentals & Mining (Pty)Ltd as an adminitrator .

Organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals.
