Promise Magumise
@promisemagumise
I lead quality and materials testing across steel manufacturing, cement production, and mineral processing laboratories.
What I'm looking for
I lead the Quality Department at Steelbrands Private Limited, overseeing materials testing, quality-system compliance, and laboratory output for steel manufacturing operations.
I support Continuous Casting Machine and Rolling Mill teams through quality control, using Optical Emission Spectrometry and UTM testing to assess material composition and mechanical properties. I also maintain and calibrate laboratory equipment, prepare samples, and train laboratory personnel on procedures and safety.
Previously, I analysed cement conformity samples at Sino Cement Zimbabwe and supervised preparation for wet titration, fire assaying, and ICP analysis at Global Platinum Resources.
My metallurgical assaying experience at Mimosa Mining Company includes sampling plant units, fire and wet assaying, and maintaining AAS/ICP instrumentation. I hold an Honours degree in Metallurgical Engineering and am seeking an internationally sponsored metallurgical, materials, or quality engineering role.
