Brian Telfer Email & Phone Number

I managed and developed a successful service in the Forth Valley area of Scotland for over 14 years. This was a warehousing, distribution, maintenance, retrieval and decontamination service. I have a proactive, hardworking and positive approach to my work. I have gained a wealth of knowledge and experience during the whole of my career over 30 plus years. I am experienced and confident in dealing with both internal and external customers at all levels both in the public sector, working with three funding partners, and private sector, successfully managing a wide range of supplier contracts. I am seeking a new and challenging position, which can make the best of the knowledge, skills and experience I have gained and will also allow me to develop myself professionally. At the same time as the above, I also served as the Scottish Chairperson for a large UK wide organisation for over four years.During my time as manager of the JLES I became involved with the National Association of Equipment Providers (naep). I became the Scottish Chair of the naep for around five years. During this period I was involved in promoting the naep throughout Scotland, bringing together other equipment service managers and other interested parties to form a Scottish forum. It was also part of my remit as the chair to foster relationships with other organisations such as the Scottish Government etc. Laterally I began to form a relationship with equipment service managers in Northern Ireland in-order to hopefully kick-start an active forum, this was received enthusiastically and I believe is still meeting regularly.

Listed skills include Budget Management, Project Management, Change Management, Contract Management, and 7 others.
