Marthie Cromhout ¨C CV
PERSONAL OVERVIEW
I am a senior Business Process Analyst, with 18 years+ experience in the Information and Communication Technology
Industry on business process improvement.
Inefficient processes constitute to waste which equates to money. The word ¡°waste¡± does not exist in my vocabulary. I am
always looking for opportunities to improve efficiency through process and/or system optimisation. By taking this
approach, I have experienced:
improved employee morale, service level performance and customer satisfaction ratings
reduction in penalty payments
self-satisfaction
successful transitioning of services
Over the course of my career, I have gained a lot about business improvement requirements, as well as team collaboration
in project environments, and I believe that this acquired knowledge and experience can be leveraged by my future
employer to the benefit of the organisation.
