In the 11 years Jeffrey has worked for Amrod, he has built his mother a house in Limpopo, helped his sister with Electrical Engineering course fees and rent and bought his nieces and nephews Christmas clothes every year.
He is a soft-spoken man with a strong commitment to his family and to helping his coworkers rise and shine like he has.
I grew up in Limpopo and originally wanted to study to be a Social Worker but I didn’t have enough points so I studied for a Mechanical Engineering Diploma.
I found work at Amrod as a Casual Packer and was determined to succeed. I decided not to limit myself and to turn this job into a career. Anything that the other packers said was too difficult I said “give it to me, I will figure it out.” My Supervisors saw my hard work and I became Night-Shift Packing Team Leader.
I was nominated Overall Employee of the Year and Production Employee of the Year in 2011 and 2018. When my Supervisor went on leave, I said “don’t worry to find a replacement, I will ensure everything runs smoothly”. I always watched my Supervisors carefully, to learn as much as possible. In 2012 I became Assistant Supervisor and in 2013 Receiving Supervisor. I manage four floors and am in touch with everything that goes on, but I know I’m doing a good job when I see people being promoted. I don’t want to see the same person in the same job for a long time, I want to see them grow like I did.
