Our Alumni

 

 

Here are some of the women who've passed through Jack's doors, from our graduate training programmes, and have gone on to pursue other opportunities or further studies. We're proud to maintain our association with them:

 

Nana Gyima

 

LLB (UCT)

LLM (International Human Rights Law) (UCT)

 

Nana joined the Jack Hammer team in 2008 in an administrative capacity while completing her Masters degree at the University of Cape Town. In addition to her administrative duties, she assisted in various research assignments as well as managing the company's Business Intelligence Centre.

 

After a happy year and half at Jack Hammer and completion of her degree, she moved into the legal research and development field. She is now employed at a research institute affiliated with the University of Pretoria and works as a legal and policy researcher in the field of socio-economic rights.

 

This entails researching developments and trends in the advancement of these rights in the Southern African region. The role invariable leads to discussion and liaison with government, non-governmental and international agencies working in the field of human rights and economic development.

 

 

Muchero Nyazema

 

B.Soc.Sc (Organizational Psychology); B.Comm (Hons) (UCT)

Masters in International Business (UK)

 

Muchero joined Jack Hammer in 2006 after completing her honours degree at the University of Cape Town. She started off as a trainee researcher, and  over an 18 month period became an accomplished Research Associate, covering assignments in a range of industry sectors and engaging with executive level professionals on all of her projects.

 

An opportunity arose to study overseas, and Muchero left the Jack Hammer team mid-2007 and moved to United Kingdom to complete a Masters' degree in International Business. Living in the UK was a wonderful experience both culturally and academically. She completed her degree with a first class pass for her dissertation and then returned to South Africa.

 

She is now employed with Dimension Data in the Human Resources division on their Graduate Program, and considers herself very fortunate to be part of a large organisation that has afforded her such a wonderful career opportunity.

 

 

Tumisang Sono

 

B.Soc.Sc (Hons) Workplace Change & Labour Law

M.Phil (Labour Law) (UCT)

 

Tumi's academic background, with a focus on the workplace and Labour Law as well as research methodologies, prepared her well for the role of researcher with Jack Hammer Executive Headhunters. She joined the team in January 2007 and throughout her year with the company continued with her studies for her Masters degree!

 

After completing her Masters at UCT she returned to Botswana and is now an HR consultant with Edcon in their Botswana region.

 

In her role, she performs all the HR functions for all the stores in the region, including recruitment and selection, orientation and training, employee relations and performance management.

 

She is required to do a lot of traveling as every store in the country has to be visited at least once every 6 weeks, and she is really enjoying the challenges and demands of the role.
