Operations And Project Manager
CurrentI have been an operations manager at the CSIR for several years, dealing predominantly with business planning, documents and reporting, and monitoring and assessing the achievement of targets. The role has also involved managing the process around investment in technology and products and services as well as assisting with the management of Safety, Health and the Environment. I have had a strong role in building a quality management system to ensure excellence in all that we do. I have many years of experience in working both in the line and in support so have a shared understanding of the frustrations and requirements of both elements in the workplace. For some of this period, I also doubled up as an HR manager in one of the units which could not afford two managers in the early phases of its existence.
