I am a highly motivated and hardworking Production Manager and experienced Construction Site Manager, with a combined experience of over 18 years in the production and construction sectors. My strong technical skill, approachable and collaborative leadership style and professional work ethic have allowed me to earn the respect of my colleagues and peers and this, coupled with a dedication to exceptional customer service, have enabled me to deliver superior quality products and services that meet, and often exceed, time, quality and cost expectations. A natural analytical thinker and skilled problem-solver, I lead by example in demonstrating a methodical, organised and logical approach to site and project management. Safety is paramount and I am a strong advocate of adherence to safety procedures, and pre-emptive equipment maintenance. I am able to efficiently manage conflicting priorities and multi-levelled workloads, effectively managing communication and driving alignment across all levels, including operators, clients and senior stakeholders. I strive to motivate and inspire my team by continuously displaying integrity, accountable leadership, and promoting a positive working environment.NOTEWORTHY ACCOMPLISHMENTS- Consulting Engineer on the Kellogg’s Impilo Entsha project, which was nominated for the Southern African Institute of Steel Construction’s (SAISC) Steel Awards, 2011- Increasing production capacity by 40% over 4 years at IRP Engineering Plastics (2014-Present)
