Process Analyst (Agile and Automation)

Process Mapping and Digital Transformation:

• End-to-End Mapping: Design visual blueprints of all Academy projects, from learner recruitment and SETA registration to EISA (External Integrated Summative Assessment) and certification
• QCTO/SETA Integration: Map regulatory compliance checkpoints into the digital workflow to ensure no "Evidence of Competence" is missed
• Automation: Use Google AppSheet and Apps Script to automate manual data entry, learner tracking, and document submissions
• AI Implementation: Leverage Gemini for Google Workspace to analyze quality reports and audit findings for rapid gap identification

Agile Project Management:

• Sprint Planning: Organize compliance and QA tasks into 2-week agile sprints to ensure accreditation renewals and SETA uploads are never late
• Continuous Improvement: Facilitate "Retrospectives" between the QA and Compliance teams to optimize the Quality Management System (QMS)
