Jacques Du Plessis

Operations Manager
Johannesburg

Summary

I'm always motivated to improve myself and my skills at work, and I enjoy learning new things. Handling pressure is something I'm good at, and I take my work seriously. I'm not afraid to think creatively and put in the extra hours to make sure projects or company goals are successful. I've had a range of jobs, mostly in Operations Management for construction sites and Project Management. I've also managed a nightclub as part of my experience in Hospitality Management. Working at Axle Projects and the nightclub has given me a solid understanding of general management. I'm ready to bring all this experience to the table for future opportunities.
