In Heaven!!!!!

 
 
Well guys, for the last seven days this was my home, and I do have to say it was awesome. Seven days of heaven cruising the ocean, calling into some amazing places. After a nice long relaxing week for myself, it is back to reality tomorrow, work, school, studying and everything in between. I hope everyone else's week has been as great as mine :) :)

My Company

So, after nearly one hour of trying to work out why I could not log into my blog account, (in the wrong Internet browser) I am here to tell you a bit about my Company.

The company I have been assigned is Salmat, at first I thought ok I sort of know they are a tel-communication service( i.e the one most people complain about with the telemarketers that call right at dinner time), but hey after seen what there pay packets are like, I would gladly work up the food chain  to become one of the few women executives in this company.

A bit of back ground history of Salmat. Salmat was started from scratch in 1984 by, Peter Matlick and Phil Salter. Salmat has many areas of expertise, such as; communication products and services, pamphlet delivery services, digital marketing or call center's, just to name a few.

Just as recently as, February 12th, 2014 Salmat was announced as the preferred supplier for public transport in Victoria.

Salmat has a total of seven board of directors, out of these seven only one has a background of accounting, and that is Mr Stephen Bardwell, who is the Company Secetary. Out of the five Senior Executives that Salmat has, one of them has an accounting back ground, Mr Chad Burton who is the Chief Financial Office. However, come the end of February, Mr Burton will cease to be employed by Salmat.

On the 2nd of December 2002, Salmat became listed on the Australian Stock Exchange.

In April, 2014 Salmat will be receiving an new CEO. Mr Craig Dower will be taking on this new challenging role. Mr Dower comes with a wealth of experience, in his last posting Mr Dower was employed by Avanade for seven years and was based in Singapore.
