When asked “Why do you love your job”
“I enjoy seeing my work through from beginning to end and seeing how well expectations are executed. I don’t like deadlines though – they stress me out a bit. In this job you need a lot of patience to convince people to break out of their comfort zones. Nine times out of ten people want you to stick to the old standards. But I must be doing something right as I was the employee of the year in July 2008 and employee of the month for March in both 2007 and 2008”
Jones Mudenda: Graphic Designer, Zambia
When asked “What makes your job special”?
“Firstly, I see it as a profession filled with fun and passion rather than just a job. You not only have to have the technical skills to run tables and the ability to make decisions quickly, you also have to have people skills in order to manage your teams and to thrill our customers”.
Monticello Pit Boss Gustavo Gracia
“Facilitators have opportunities to make a real difference in peoples lives. When delegates leave a session with a new sense of self confidence, feel empowered and are inspired to try new skills, you know that you have made a valuable contribution”.
Lisa Stassen: Training and Development officer
“I meet various types of people, from all over the world. I make these people my number one priority. I do the best I can in what I do to provide them with A Million Thrills. One Destination and I do it here at GrandWest!”
Geofre Damon: Technical Support, Entertainment department
My journey with Sun International began when I received a bursary from the company in 2005. After graduating I started on a Graduate Management Training Program with Sun International. This program opened many doors for me and exposed me to all facets of the business world. I have traveled and worked at many of the Sun International Units and I have grown and developed with the Sun International family. Sun International has a professional yet warm and friendly environment that makes you feel apart of the team from your very first day. I am now a Senior HR officer for the Wild Coast Sun. The growth and developmental opportunities are endless. I am proud to be part of this very successful family.
