During the course of my career I have been lucky enough to experience virtually every department (sales, purchasing, quality and operations) within a mid-sized electronics company, as a manager and as an individual contributor. I have been focused on continual improvement and this was tantamount in each of my positions. 1. I am looking for a position that would allow me to utilize my varied experiences and skills. 2. I am open to management as well as individual contributor careers.3. I’m very loyal and enjoy collaborative and cross-functional opportunities. 4. My unique combination of Sales, Purchasing and Quality leadership makes me distinctly qualified for many different types of roles.5. Contact me: chris_b323@yahoo.com, Cell: 585-259-5830
