Before joining CJP there are a couple terms I didn’t believe in at all. I didn’t think ‘work-life balance’ was a realistic thing until I worked at a company that not only speaks about it, but allows you the chance to actually have some balance, ‘loyalty’ to me was an outdated term that applied to mothers’ and fathers’ careers but here, your loyalty is rewarded by CJP tenfold. ‘Diversity’ to me was window dressing until I walked into this company and saw it in action for myself. CJP Chemicals is like no other business where it comes to taking care of it’s greatest asset, it’s people.
Joining CJP Chemicals has been an exciting and smooth experience. The onboarding process was exceptionally well organized and made me feel welcomed and supported right from the start. I'm looking forward to growing here and contributing to the organization's goals.
I began my journey with CJP Chemicals as a Customer Service Representative, later assisted as a Dispatching Clerk, Costing Local Transport and I was promoted to Demand Planning. Each role has helped me grow my knowledge and gain new skills. I appreciate the opportunities and support provided by CJP, which have helped me grow in my career.
