My Journey with Medipost Holdings by Lauren Aploon – CDU Picking Supervisor

My seven-year career at Medipost Holdings began in the Quality Assurance Department as a QA assistant in CDU Production. This was an exceptional opportunity for me to grow both personally and professionally. At the time, the Cape Town branch was still in its early stages, with no established departments. We worked wherever needed, as long as it was within our scope of practice, to help bring the company's plans to life.

The chance to meet new people and collaborate across various departments taught me valuable skills, such as communicating effectively with colleagues and professionals from different fields, listening carefully, and adapting to new situations.

The Production Department was already successfully operational, and I was learning a lot about the GBI machine and the dispensing process in CDU production. However, I wanted to expand my knowledge, especially about reading and capturing prescriptions.

When a position opened in the Order Processing Department as a CDU capturing assistant, I faced a choice: continue deepening my expertise in CDU Production or take the chance to grow as a pharmacist assistant in Order Processing. I chose the latter to take my career to the next level. After gaining extensive new knowledge, I returned to the CDU Production Department and was offered the role of picking supervisor, which is my current position.

This role has given me the opportunity to interact with many people and share the knowledge that I have gained. Being a supervisor comes with its challenges. When I first took on this role, I asked myself two questions: ‘What kind of supervisor do I want to be?’ and ‘How can I benefit CDU Production and its employees?’

After several years in CDU Production, the answers to these questions became clearer. I have learnt the importance of commitment and respecting the environment and the people I work with.

I enjoy the nature and responsibility of my profession – it’s all about the people. This job requires more than just eight hours of work per day; it is about showing employees that their efforts are valued and essential to the company. My philosophy is to look beyond the immediate problem and consider the person behind it – their needs and humanity. It is everyone's responsibility to dig deep, with patience and respect, to truly understand what the client and the company require.

I believe in the work I do. I have so much to offer both employees and the company. My role allows me to empower employees by sharing knowledge, helping them realise their potential and become more effective despite any challenges they may face. I want my work to have a lasting impact that goes beyond my contributions.

Thank you, Medipost Holdings, for giving me the opportunity to learn from the best and grow professionally and personally.
