Zahkir Hassim

My goal is to find employment within an organization that can provide me with a strong and sound foundation upon which I may continue building a dynamic and challenging career. In return, I will undoubtedly be an asset to the organization and have much to contribute in terms of my skills, abilities, academic background and experience (both nationally and internationally). My strategy in terms of a career path that I have chosen stems from my passion in overseeing operations and supply chain within an organisation.

My strategic and organisational skill thus ensures a smooth and un-interrupted flow of processes and supply. I am exceptionally analytically inclined by nature, outstanding at problem solving with great attention to detail and continuously looking for ways to better systems and processes. My enthusiasm and quest for knowledge assures that I can handle any task or challenge that is put forth to me.

I am equally able to work independently or as part of a team. I strive for excellence and thrive under pressure. I have consistently worked towards and met deadlines and I will have a positive impact on any team I join.

My resulting objective therefore is to be placed in a well-established organisation with a firm set of values and culture that promotes growth, learning and development. I am a tenacious, vibrant, passionate and a driven individual that is eager to make my mark in whichever organization I may join.
