General Manager of IT

Started with BioMar on a 1 year contract to implement ERP System M3 and to install and setup all IT Infrastructure. After the new facility was commissioned, I joined BioMar in a full full time capacity as a BioMar employee and continued to work on process improvement initiatives.In 2022 I accepted a postion as the Global Project Manager for MFG IT and worked in France for 8 weeks implementing the BioMar SCADA/MES system with a team from France, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom.I continued to perform that role until Jan 2023. After careful consideration I decide the lure of being a expat based in Europe and doing further implementations in Spain, Denmark, Norway, Turkey, Greece and others was less important than ensuring my daughter and son completed there final years of education without disruption.I loved my time at BioMar. I highley recommend BioMar to everyone.

Assumed responsibility for an ageing and outdated IT Operation.Worked closely with the business units to gather key requirements and using my experience developed an IT roadmap that embraced the business plan.Over the next period, restructured the IT organisation to acquire / develop the skills required to deliver the plan. We then developed the key strategic vendor relationships needed to support the implementation of the plan.The roadmap was rolled out over a three year time frame which was structured to deliver the infrastructure required to successfully implement business requirements. This included the rollout of a new ERP system to Australia, Malaysia, China, Singapore and Indonesia.The result was a new technology department that was responsive to the business units and a core set of systems that could easily be adapted to meet changes in the operating environment.As the company changed over the next 10 years, a single warehouse operation based in Melbourne was expanded to five state based company owned warehouses and several third party warehouses all implemented with a minimum of effort.The company then went global and moved manufacturing to Malaysia, where we opened two new manufacturing plants in Kuala Lampur and one new manufacturing facility was opened in Ningbo, China as well as operational entities in Indonesia and Singapore. Again the system delivered as part of the roadmap was able to meet the business requirements easily.The general OPEX was approx. $3M PA and the initial development CAPEX for the roadmap implementation was approx. $3M over a three year period.The team was reorganised to deliver the business requirements. More emphasis was placed on delivering business intelligence and the new systems required less operational support.There were seven staff in the revised organisation, three supporting business intelligence and four supporting operations across the organisation.

Platform release management, technical lead and programming in C.The Australia Post Project was responsible for the development and deployment of the Post Office retail back office systems for over 1000 post offices around Australia.Platform was the department responsible for delivering the hardware and software infrastructure for the business system to be deployed.Platform group provided all Hardware certification for the rollout and maintenance of the installed system base. As hardware changes frequently, managing the testing and certification process during the rollout of over 1000 systems implementations was a complex task in itself.Platform group also provided the software drivers for the business application to interface to the peripheral equipment, such as cash drawers, receipt printers, scales, bar code readers and EFTPOS equipment.Being team leader of the group gave me an invaluable insight into the management and skills required to produce software releases on a large scale. The integration aspect of the project was also a major challenge and gave me fantastic exposure to managing relationships between key stake holders, both internal and external to the organisation.
