Mothering for success in the industry: Working moms make
it work!
Ivy Bautista describes herself as a natural born leader. She has been working as a Sort Training Officer for Ninja Van Philippines since November 2020 where she is tasked to develop training materials for the Sort Team as well as prepare guidelines and incident reports. As a working mom, she has to balance her schedule between work and family duties, which can get challenging sometimes since her job requires her to travel frequently to train Sort Officers in various locations.
Thanks to the support of her husband and colleagues, Ivy is able to stay on top of her responsibilities as a mom and employee, earning the trust of her superiors and teammates and impacting positive changes in her department including standardizing the orientation journey for new personnel.
Account Manager Karla Dasig is also a working mom who has been with Ninja Van Philippines since 2016. She currently handles clients in the finance and retail industries. Being a single mom, she is grateful that the company allows her to work on a flexible schedule, which gives her the chance to spend more time with her son.
Working at Ninja Van Philippines enabled Karla to step out of her comfort zone that resulted in tremendous improvement and growth in her professional career. Now, her goal is to enhance her leadership and managerial skills to help her entire team thrive. She also wishes to share her knowledge and expertise to new hires who will be under her supervision so they can better manage and address the problems that may arise on the job.
Female
Ninjas on the road, driving out the stereotypes
Delivery riders play an important role in making sure that parcels get delivered to customers on time and in the best possible condition. And while we have grown accustomed to seeing male riders on the road, it’s great to also acknowledge the efforts of women who take on this difficult job, rain or shine.
Sheina, Michelle,
and Mercie are just three of Ninja Van Philippines’ female delivery riders who
embody the company’s promise of Todo Hustle, No Hassle deliveries and services.
Four years into being a delivery rider, Sheina Janalul prides herself for consistently receiving good standing for her performance. While she admitted that there can be a handful of difficult customers who tend to lash out on delivery riders like her, she tries her best not to take things personally and as much as possible, not to absorb the negativity from the situation. Of course, not all customers are the same as she has also encountered those who are kind and understanding, even becoming friends with some of them.
Michelle Ynigo is another female
delivery rider who has been with Ninja Van Philippines since 2018. Given her
years of experience on the job, she has encountered her fair share of bumps in
the road such as rude customers and lost or damaged parcels that she deals with
by keeping a calm disposition when communicating with those involved. All in
all, Michelle finds fulfillment in knowing that what she does as a delivery
rider contributes value to the lives of Ninja Van’s customers.
From a Ninja Van
rider in 2018, Mercie Abundo has
been promoted to Assistant Station Head of her hub in Mindoro and is now
training to be the Station Head soon. According to her, dealing with
problematic consignees and riders has been one of the most challenging aspects
of her job. However, she has always shown willingness to help with the
resolution of any delivery-related issues and ensures effective communication
with customers. Because of this, her outstanding performance has been
recognized by Ninja Van Philippines, specifically for managing a hub with no
parcel backlog – a feat she considers to be one of her proudest career
achievements to date.
