I am a successful Sales and General Manager with 25 years of experience running my own business within the vehicle electrical parts industry. I am a determined and responsible individual whose strengths include managing and motivating staff at all levels. My key areas of expertise are the procurement of vehicle parts and general supplies, technical specification, export, negotiations, and the delivery of products within a critical breakdown time frame and planned maintenance schedules. Experience in Royal Navy MOD structure and training followed by: 1. Security management in a national account security business. 2. On application to ASDA manufacturing (Wakefield), the decision to build an afternoon shift around me as a chargehand was offered and accepted, progressing quickly with ‘far-reaching’ responsibilities and increased staffing levels from 20 to 70 within 12 months. I concluded as a manager in 1990 when ASDA closed its manufacturing bases around the UK.3. Sales Manager for a material handling parts business in Leeds. Duties included quotes & supply logistics for major supermarket chains.4. I had built up a following and reputation among Professional Engineers and, ‘on request,’ formed ADR Components UK in 2003, covering a larger scope of Automotive Electrical Parts for domestic and industrial vehicles. Tasks included Wakefield’s outlet store logistics and management, technical sales manager, and HTML enthusiast. The skills were relevant to creating Arc-Components.com and were noted, which led to personal assistance from ‘high street shops’ wanting help and advice on creating an online presence.• Oceanography • Security protocol and risk assessment• Departmental management• Sage accounting• IT system network management• Excel spreadsheet and data transfer• Electrical parts advisor and fault-finding• Purchasing and sales management• Accounts department management• Direct counter and telesales• Website and e-commerce shop creation• HTML code writing and editing
