Maersk Drilling Reports On its Local Talent Training Program in Angola
Panda Antonio Sebastiao was the first local employee hired in Angola, and has since 2012 worked as an HR Assistant. Panda holds a bachelor degree in Enterprise Management and Organisation and is particularly interested in CSR & Local Content. After two years as an HR Assistant, Panda felt a need to develop further, for which reason he will be part of the CSR & Local Content team going forward.
“It is a dream of many young Angolans to work in the A.P. Moller-Maersk Group. The organization has a good organizational culture, but it is important to preserve and deepen our ways to bring a different dynamic and to face new challenges in the market regarding the training and attraction of new talent“, Panda says.
2014 is going to be a challenging, yet exciting year, where the newly established offshore trainee positions for Dynamic Positioning Operator, Drilling Fluid Operator, Rig Floor Mechanics, Electrician and Engine Responsible will be implemented; a total of 16 trainees. Onshore, a new training matrix will be implemented with a main focus on company culture and values.
As Maersk Drilling expands its business into new markets in emerging economies, we have to address challenges and opportunities such as recruiting local people, sourcing options, security concerns, and sometimes corrupt business environments. With our growth comes a larger responsibility.
