Culture & Capability Advisor
Vodafone since: April 2007
A cutting edge, dynamic, exciting workplace that really values their people and their customers.
The whole company went to Op Shop's Studio and created a 'Brand Jam' by playing and listening to Op Shop music. This was a fantastic way to demonstrate how the essence of our brand is important to everyone in the business no matter how different your job is from the person 'jamming' next to you!
A large part of my role is focusing on people's skill capability in the business. I help our employees make the most of now by taking individuals and their teams through their development plans to enable them to make a strong link with their goals. When development plans are in place people have a real sense of direction and drive and I believe that this helps them focus on the now.
There are so many opportunities that Vodafone offers. A large team of us ran Round the Bays early this year which was great to be a part of (couldn't miss us in the bright RED shirts). There was a huge celebration put on for us at the end and I think many other corporate tents were jealous when they saw our large massage tent!
Vodafone is such a buzzing, exciting company and there is a lot of opportunity to gain experience in things you don't necessarily do in your day to day role. You just have to get out there and meet people within the business (which is easy to do when you don't sit in the same seat everyday!)
